I just spent 3 hours fighting with explode and thing I found a quirk them might be interesting to
many...
I was trying to explode the string:
<php
$vTideData = '2004-01-19;04:43;4.7|2004-01-19;09:18;3.9|2004-01-19;13:49;4.6';
$vElements = explode('|',$vTideData);
?>
the above returned only 1 array element.
It seems you need a LEADING seperation character to make it work.
<php
$vTideData = '|2004-01-19;04:43;4.7|2004-01-19;09:18;3.9|2004-01-19;13:49;4.6';
$vElements = explode('|',$vTideData);
?>
works fine.
