Create an array from a variable ?

[TitanKing]

Hello everyone, I was wondering, I have a variable with the following values...

$variable = "3,6,9,12";

How would I create an array from this variable seperating the values by comma ??

$array = array($variable);

Above doesnt work, it doesnt split the array in seperate values, it thinks "3,6,9,12" is one value ? I would appreciate some guidance in the right direction...

Thank you in advance !

Sorry my noobishness ! You can use explode(",",$variable); split(",",$variable); instead of array();
