note 75471 added to function.split

This function takes a string like this... this=cool that="super cool" thing='ridiculous cool' And gives you an associative array of names and values. function parseNameValues ($text) { $values = array(); if (preg_match_all('/([^=\s]+)=("(?P<value1>[^"]+)"|' . '\'(?P<value2>[^\']+)\'|(?P<value3>.+?)\b)/', $text, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER)) foreach ($matches as $match) $values[trim($match[1])] = trim(@$match['value1'] . @$match['value2'] . @$match['value3']); return $values; } (regex broken into two strings so it won't be too long for this webpage) ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 207.225.248.36 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.split.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/75471 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/75471 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/75471 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
