RE: [PHP] split string

$test = "1,2,3"; $arrTest = explode(",",$test); foreach($arrTest as $k=>$v) { $vname = "test".(!$k?"":$k); // global for use later global $$vname; $GLOBALS[$vname] = $v; } // now global $test, $test1, $test2 exist etc -----Original Message----- From: Jacky [mailto:jacky@activelifestyle.com] Sent: 11 May 2001 16:24 To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] split string I got series of string value like this 1,2,3. And the seires are dynamaic, which means it is not always 1,2,3 but could be more, but always in this format that is separated by "," . How do I pick each of value in the series and assign it into new vairiable, like from: $test = 1,2,3; and assign to be $test =1; $test1=2; $test2 =3; Is theer any function that could help me with that? because I need to update table using those value but I cannot use series of value to update, have to break them down to each variable like that.
