[RESOLVED] Help getting specific characters from string

[fotofx]

I have a string we will call size. It may contain several possible values.

ex:

$size = "Twin 60x74";
or
$size = "Queen 60x80"

There will always be an x between the two numbers.

I need the two numbers into two separate strings.

Any help is appreciated.

I figured it out. There may be an easier way.

$length = substr($size,(stripos($size, "x") - 2),2);

thanks

You could have also used [man]preg_match/man with a pattern such as:

/\b([0-9]+) ?x ?([0-9]+)\b/

That would also be a little flexible in terms of whitespace (e.g. "800x600" is matched as well as "800 x 600").
