Here is a small script I use to break a part search queries[example: "do-search"-"dont-search" ] + or no 'switch' is to add to search tearms - for do not include in search <?php function parse_search ($input) { $c = count_chars($input, 0); $c = ($c[34]/ 2); if(!strstr($c, ".") && $c != "0"){ $input = explode("\"", $input); $include = array(); $exclude = array(); $switches = array("+", "-"); for($i=0; $i < count($input); $i++){ $inst = $input[$i]; if($inst == "" && ($i == "0" || $i == (count($input) - 1)) ){ $inst = "+"; } if(in_array($inst, $switches)){ $lswitch = $inst; }else{ if($inst != ""){ if($lswitch == "-"){ $exclude[] = $inst; }elseif($lswitch == "+"){ $include[] = $inst; }else{ $include[] = $inst; } } unset($lswitch); } } // end loop $output = array("include" => $include, "exclude" => $exclude); }else{ $output = array("include" => explode(" ", trim($input))); } return $output; } // end function ?> Sorry for my somewhat messy and hard to follow code. An example of the code would be: <?php $search = '"isearch"-"this"' $do_search = parse_search($search); print_r($do_search); ?> will output: Array ( [include] => Array ( [0] => isearch ) [exclude] => Array ( [0] => this ) ) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.explode.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+47568 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47568&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+47568&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
