I have a problem I am trying to set up a credit card form for worldpay And in the address field that I have to send to them it has to go in a textarea <textarea cols="30" rows="4" name="address"></textarea> So when you fill this in it would look like this address city state Now this works fine for sending them the data but when the data is sent back it is also in this format address city state I need to separate it into Address, city, state so it is 3 different variables I have tried $saddress=explode ("&#10;",$address); $address1=$saddress[0]; $city=$saddress[1]; $state=$saddress[2]; &#10; is the the new line character I have also tried /n and /s but none of these work When I echo the $address to the screen it shows as address city state but when I vew the code from the browser it shows it as address city state So I assume that it is passing a new line character Does anybody have a solution for this Best regards, Richard mailto:rkurth@pacifier.com
