[RESOLVED] Convert String to Array

[jtmathome]

With a string like this:

$Data = "45,'Dog',33.2,'Cat','Bird'";

I need this result:

$Arr = array ($Data);

$Arr[0] = 45
$Arr[1]=Dog
$Arr[2]=33.2
$Arr[3]=Cat
$Arr[4]=Bird

$Arr = explode(',', str_replace('\'', NULL, $Data));

Though this means a literal single quote will not be allowed as part of the string.

If you are in control of how $Data is generated, don't add quotes around the stringed values so that you can simply use [man]explode[/man].

Explode will work fine for me.
