breaking up a variable

[discostudio]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem:

if($details[$i]['add_block'] != "") {
					$splitbullets = explode("\r\n", $details[$i]['add_block']);
						$r=0; foreach($splitbullets AS $b) {

					$data['addr_1'] = $db->mySQLSafe($b); 
					$data['addr_2'] = $db->mySQLSafe($b);
					$data['town'] = $db->mySQLSafe($b);
					$data['state'] = $db->mySQLSafe($b);

					$r++; if($r == 4) break; }
			}

This is designed to take the information from a variable line by line seperated by \r\n and enter it into 4 seperate variables. as you can see I have to limit the loop to four as I only have four variables, if there is any more lines I will have to discard them.

It doesn't work..... Can anyone help?

If all you're looking for are the first four lines you could just say something like:

$data['addr_1'] = $splitbullets[0];
$data['addr_2'] = $splitbullets[1];

There's really no need to reassign the variables so you could just use:

$splitbullets[0];
$splitbullets[1];
$splitbullets[2];
$splitbullets[3];

This still doesn't work, any ideas?

if($details[$i]['add_block'] != "") {
					$s = explode("\r\n", $details[$i]['add_block']);
						$data['addr_1'] = $db->mySQLSafe($s[0]);
						$data['addr_2'] = $db->mySQLSafe($s[1]);
						$data['town'] = $db->mySQLSafe($s[2]);
						$data['state'] = $db->mySQLSafe($s[3]);

Are you sure the lines end with "\r\n" and not just "\n"? If the latter, or you don't know, you could do it like this:

$splitbullets = explode("\n", $details[$i]['add_block']);  // Creates array and removes "\n".
foreach($splitbullets as $b) {
    trim $b;  // Removes "\r" if it's there.
    // etc.
}
