Removing a certain character and counting the number of exploded items

FabianJ

Hey again...

If i have say $variable = "Hello!" how would i tell the script to delete any "!"'s it finds in the variable to make $variable2 = "Hello" ?

Another problem i'm having is after using the explode command to split a list on items up into single ones:

$item = explode('Þß',$items);

echo $item[0];
echo $item[1];
echo $item[2];
etc.

How would i have the number of seperate items were created by the explode?

1) $variable2 = str_replace('!', '', $variable);

2) $total = count($item);

hth.

Why do you always sign your posts "hth"? Are those your initials?

On this forum, any extra newlines (enter's) you do are removed and I don't like that my signature line bunches up so close to what I wrote. So, I just usually put something at the end to separate the lines a bit. Sometimes, I just put a period or a happy face.

hth stands for "hope that helps".
