A. I have a page on which people can supply dates in a text area. Dates are entered like this: 3/01/2005 29/12/2005 2/01/2006 20/02/2006 28/12/2006 1/01/2007 15/02/2007 B. Now I need this Post element to be broken into pieces (per date) and each of those pieces should be put into a text so the outcome (echo on screen) would be like this: Date=3/01/2005 Date=29/12/2005 Date=2/01/2006 Date=20/02/2006 Date=28/12/2006 Date=1/01/2007 Date=15/02/2007 The posted variable from A looks like this (when written on screen): 3/01/2005 29/12/2005 2/01/2006 20/02/2006 28/12/2006 1/01/2007 15/02/2007 So I need break this up and store any individual date into a key of an array Afterwards I need to loop through this array and use the value of each key to be printed after 'Date='

try this: $string = "3/01/2005 29/12/2005 2/01/2006 20/02/2006 28/12/2006 1/01/2007 15/02/2007"; $array = explode(' ', $string); foreach ($array as $value) echo "Date: $value<br />";
