split a string every 10 characters

[craigbrown2k3]

how would u split a string into an array each containing 10 characters... e.g:
this is the string to be changed
would be:
[0]this is th
[1]e string t
[2]o be chang
[3]ed

😕

I think I would do it like this

for( $i=0,$c=0;$i<strlen($s);$i++,$c+=10 )
    $a[] = substr( $s , $c , $c+10 );

Free advice is worth what you pay for it. 🙂

😕 part of it works... but part of it dont...
Code:

<?php
// $stringtoget = $_GET['txt'];
$s = "i wonder if this will work";
for( $i=0,$c=0;$i<strlen($s);$i++,$c+=10 )
$a[] = substr( $s , $c , $c+10 );
echo $a[0] ."<br>". $a[1] ."<br>". $a[2];
?>

output:

i wonder i
f this will work
l work

the 2nd one aint working 😕

This should be correct:

$str_array = array();
$len = strlen($str);
for ($i = 0; $i < $len; $i += 10)
	$str_array[] = substr($str, $i, 10);

EDIT:
yeah, didnt notice it either, must be too much C++ :o

I just hate working on 3 things at a time.

LL has it right.

That will teach you to cut & paste 🙂

A $ sign is missing
