[RESOLVED] creating an array from predefined string

[kender]

okay, here it is, simple

$arrvalue = "1,2,3,4,5";
$array = array($arrvalue);
print_r($array);

outputs

Array ( 
  [0] => 1,2,3,4,5 
)

how can i get the output to be

Array (
  [0] => 1,
  [1] => 2,
  [2] => 3,
  [3] => 4,
  [4] => 5
)

Do an [man]explode/man on the commas.

[kender]

please explain, wont that just give me

Array ([0] => 1 2 3 4 5)

without the commas then?

my goal is to make each number (1, 2,3, 4, 5) as a different array value

Read the manual page for [man]explode[/man]. Then try it out.

explode

or

$x = preg_split(/,/,$string,-1,PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
print_r($x);
