Separating String

[Anon]

Sup all,

How would I take a string (from an HTML form) like i+am+searching+for+stuff and parse it at the +'s while removing them, then creating a variable for each string left...
so

$var1=i
$var2=am
$var3=searching
$var4=for
$var5=stuff

Now the whole reason I am doing this is so on a MySQL query I can have "...WHERE title=$var1 AND title=$var2..." so the query finds all fields that contain all of the words in any order. Maybe there is something easier to do than what I am trying above.

Thanks for help.

i'd explode() the string from the form by the spaces (or the "+" chars, but spaces with magic quotes on), foreach() through the array concating a where statement together. if the array count() is > 0 concat the where statement with the sql statement and see what happens.
