    Hello!

    Is there any short method for parsing a string to an array?

    $str = " 'red','green','blue' ";

    I want to receive the following:

    $arr = array ('red', 'green', 'blue');

    Thank you!

    $str = " 'red','green','blue' ";

$arr = array_map('trim', explode(',', str_replace("'", '', $str)));
    PHP:
    That should work, assuming the original string is in that format...
