seperator???

[hykc]

my php dynamically created a value in a variable
the format which is something like

$var = "name|address|phone"

how can i seperate them?

i only know ASP has a function to create an array for this value
newvar = aspfunction(var) will become

newvar(1) = name
newvar(2) = address
newvar(3) = phone

is PHP able to do that?

if you are looking to split $var into an array, try

$myArray = explode("|", $var);

Hey,

$array = explode("|", $string);

This will give you $array with the variables in the array.

i found few functions which do similar thing

split()
strtok()
and from you guy explode()

which one should i use?

explode does what you want here.
