how do I turn a number in to an array i.e. $test=123456789; $test = array($test); echo $test[0]$test[2]$test[5];

Well, one way is to define the number as a string:

        $testString = '123456789';

or

        $test = 123456789;
        $testString = (string)$test;

Now - since you can treat strings as an array of characters - you can say

        echo $testString[0].$testString[2].$testString[5];
