ereg and arrays

Anon

I have a comma separated string (Ex: "One, Two, Three") and I want to be able to make each one of the words in my string to be put into an array (like print "$array[0]"; would come up as "One") Is this possible?
Thanks.

When in doubt, use high explosives.

Explode() it.

If your array is separated by commas, do the following:

$values = explode(",",$arrayname);

// Show values of each element //

$c=count($values);

for ($x=0;$x<$c;$x++)
{
echo $values[$c]." ";
}

MaybeI'm just stupid. Maybe it's because my head is going to explode, but was having am similar problem. Copied the code from previous post and this is how it looks in my code:

$str=$HTTP_SESSION_VARS["topic_code"];
echo " ";
echo $str;
$values=explode(", ", $str);
// show values of each element //
$c=count($values);
for ($x=0;$x<$c;$x++) {
echo $values[$c] . " ";
}

This is creating the space for the number of elements in the original string, put is not printing the actual values. (sees the but not the $values[$c]

Any idea why would be greatly appreciated!Thank you.

Found my problem. Long day.

line echo $values[$c] . " ";

should be (in my code)

echo $values[$x] . " ";

Thanks.

I apologize... typo on my part.

Change the $c to $x in the $values[?] line. I was in a hurry when I typed it.

Thanks,
