note 96567 added to function.preg-split

If you need to split a list of "tags" while allowing for user error, you'll find this more useful than the manual's first example. <?php $string = 'one, two,three, four , five,six seven'; $array = preg_split("/[\s]*[,][\s]*/", $string); print_r($array); // Array ( [0] => one [1] => two [2] => three [3] => four [4] => five [5] => six seven ) ?> This splits the string *only* by commas, regardless of how many spaces there are on either side of any comma. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 71.194.162.4 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-split.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/96567 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/96567 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/96567 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
