[RESOLVED] Explode function

[tnylsej]

Hi all..

If one has used the explode function to retrieve individual string i.e. $attribute from a table, can tt individual string, aft being exploded, be placed as a parameter of a recordset i.e. $rs[$attribute] to retrieve values from another table?

Erm, I don't get your question.

This doesn't make sense - an individual string? [man]explode/man returns an array of strings...

Once again, if $attribute is the result of the [man]explode/man function, it will be an array of strings. If you know which string you're after, i.e. $attribute[1] then yes, you can use that as an array index (after all, it's simply a string).

Thanks for ur reply.. I'm sorry about that.. I've juz learnt the explode function >.<

Part of the codes:

<tr>
<?php
$exploded = explode(",",$row_Recordset1['Attributes']);
$numExp = count($exploded);
foreach($exploded as $explosion){
?>
<th scope="col">
<?php echo $explosion; ?></th>
<?php }?>
</tr>
<?php while ($row_Recordset2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset2)){?>
<tr>
<?php for($i=0;$i<=$numExp;$i++){ ?>
<td scope="col">
<?php echo $row_Recordset2[$exploded[$i]] ?>
</td>
<?php }?>
</tr>
<?php } ?>

Only the first column is displayed. May I know if there is anything wrong with my codes?

Who generated your code?? It is really difficult to read.
I tried to clean it up a bit...

<?php

echo '<tr>';

$exploded = explode(",",$row_Recordset1['Attributes']);
$numExp = count($exploded);

foreach($exploded as $explosion)
    echo '<th scope="col">'.$explosion.'</th>';

echo '</tr>';

while ($row_Recordset2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset2)){
    echo '<tr>';

for($i=0;$i<=$numExp;$i++)
    echo '<td scope="col">'. $row_Recordset2[$exploded[$i]].'</td>';

echo '</tr>';
}

?>
