I have a comma separated spreadsheet with one field that contains two dates. the dates are formatted
as dd/mm/yy and separated by either '&' or '//' ex:3/12/92&28/1/93 or
3/12/92//28/1/93
Problem: I need to split the field at the '&' or '//' separator but if I do
split('[&//]', $field);
it splits on the '/' not the '//'.
Can I do this in one function call to split() or will I have to do it twice?
