    Hi,

    I need to split up a string like this

    A99B99C99E99F05G05H02N99P04Q99R99S02T10U04U05V99W03Z03

    into

    A99,B99,C99,E99,F05,G05,H02,N99,P04,Q99,R99,S02,T10,U04,U05,V99,W03,Z03


    So Every Third Character I need to break up with some type of delimiter.

    Is there an Easy way to do this?

    Thank you

    This will do the trick:

    
$text = 'A99B99C99E99F05G05H02N99P04Q99R99S02T10U04U05V99W03Z03';
$deliminator = "-";
$text = preg_replace( '/[A-Z0-9]{3}/i', "$0$deliminator", $text);
$text = preg_replace( "/$deliminator$/", "", $text);
    PHP:
    The second statement removes trailing deliminators.
