Note Submitter: root at mantoru dot de ---- This very handy function can be used to parse comma separated var=val strings, even with quotes: a = "b, c, d", into an array. I DID NOT DO IT MYSELF. Just stumbled upon it. Full credit goes to flyspray.org (and of course the phpBB Group, which modified it). <?php // Modified version from phpBB-3.0.RC7 // /phpBB3/includes/functions_jabber.php, line 718 function parse_data($data) { $data = explode(',', $data); $pairs = array(); $key = false; foreach ($data as $pair) { $dd = strpos($pair, '='); if ($dd) { $key = trim(substr($pair, 0, $dd)); $pairs[$key] = trim(trim(substr($pair, $dd + 1)), '"'); } else if (strpos(strrev(trim($pair)), '"') === 0 && $key) { // We are actually having something left from "a, b" values, add it to the last one we handled. $pairs[$key] .= ',' . trim(trim($pair), '"'); continue; } } return $pairs; } ?>
