Explode then select 3 random arrays

[curb]

I'm using the explode function and how would I be able to select 3 random arrays from it?

[man]explode/man returns a one dimensional array, so you cannot really select 3 random arrays from its return value. What you could do is use [man]array_rand/man to select 3 random entries from the array returned by explode().

We might need some clarification, as explode() only creates 1 array. Are you perhaps asking how to select 3 random elements from that array?

PS: Looks like LL hit submit while I was still typing. 🙂

<?php
echo $string = "here/is/a/string/separated/by/slashes";
echo "<br />";
$exploded = explode("/",$string);
$randomkeys = array_rand($exploded,3);
foreach ($randomkeys as $key){
	echo $exploded[$key]."<br />";
}
?>
