Whats the cleanest (I have a really ugly) way to break this: [21/Jul/2009:00:00:47 -0300] into: date=21/jul/2009 time=00:00:47 ...

Why not just use regexp ? For example: $string = "long text.. multiply lines... [21/Jul/2009:00:00:47 -0300] [ 1/Jul/2009:00:00:47 -0300] [22/Jul/2009:00:00:47 -0300]"; preg_match_all('#\[([ 0-9a-zA-Z/]+):([0-9:]+) [^]]+\]#',$string,$matches,PREG_SET_ORDER); print_r($matches); Output: Array (
