extract data from a variable

[netfrugal]

I have a variable called: $data_response;

It is the response given to me by a gateway, and it basically prints this out:

response=1&responsetext=SUCCESS&authcode=123456&transactionid=123456789&avsresponse=N&cvvresponse=N&orderid=TEST105&type=sale&response_code=100

How do I extract data from a variable?

You could use the [man]parse_str[/man] function. I'd suggest using the optional second parameter to have the values stored in an array, so as not to risk having them overwrite other variables in your script.
