Split The String Into Two Separate Strings
I have this variable:
$str = "4xAura Extraction";
I need it to split the string into two separate strings containing this:
$split[0]: 4
$split[1]: Aura Extraction
I can't use explode(), because that will split it up again if there are x's other than the one that comes after the number. What would be the best way to get this done. I'm asking because I'm not real good at string manipulation when it comes to mutilating them.

Split String In Smaller Strings
I have a string consisting of say 1000 characters. Want I want to do is to split the string at the first space after the first 80 characters, enter a <br> tag and after the <br> tag carry on with the rest of the string. Then it needs to repeat this with the remaining string and split it again at the first string after 80 characters till it reach the end of the string. I got it in a way to split it after 80 characters and enter a <br> tag, but it's not working properly and I don't have any idea how to repeat it. PHP Code:

Separate Strings Entered By New Line
I have a textarea where I am entering multiple strings. If I enter the strings by comma or space or some other operator then I am getting able to separate them by the explode function.

How To Separate A String That Contains No Delimters.
I'm not sure if my last post went through (so my apologies if this is a repeat). I need to figure out how to separate a string that contains no delimters. In this case, a MySQL timestamp (?

How Do You Split A String Using Split()?

E.g. I thought this would work "bW" I tried every regular expression but cant figure it out.

Split String Based On String Length
I am trying to break a large string into substrings based on a maximum length. I have managed to do this on to two lines of 100 characters by using the following code: PHP Code: if (strlen($itmaDescription[$t] < 200)) { $str1 = substr($itmaDescription[$t], 0, 100); $str2 = substr($itmaDescription[$t], 101, 200); This works ok for two lines but it cuts off the sentence mid word. What I would like to happen is for the substr to go back to the last space below the 100 character position. I am getting the string from a mySql database and I have tried using the SUBSTRING_INDEX query but I am finding it very difficult to achieve the desired result. I would prefer to break the string within PHP because it fits better with the rest of my code. I am searching for this info as a workaround because I am outputting to PDFlib and can't get multi line text output working. I am attempting to break the string up then output it to PDFlib. If anyone can help with the bigger PDflib problem then I would be well happy.

Detect Upper Case Characters In A String And Separate Them With A Space
I want to detect uppercase characters in a string and separate the two words in it by a space. I know I can use preg_replace for it, but I am not very good at regular expressions. Can someone help? One example of such a string follows. Please note that there are a lot of strings like these and I want a generic method to do it, which is why I think preg_replace would be the perfect solution. Example: $string = "UserLocation"; I want the string to be $string = "User Location";

How can i extract the numbers from this string as I have looked at substr but this requires knowing the exact length of the numbers.

Split String And Get Unique ID
i am trying to assign a unique and constant id to a string and am not sure what the best method is. here is the synopsis: my value = $myuniqueid the string = $page ex. $page = abcdef a unique id would be attained by using simple number assignments --> a=1 b=2 c=3 so abcdef ='s 123456 (i have no database from which to gain a unique id). i need to return $myuniqueid to the page to use in a js on a php page. i've tried str_split to get an array then importing the array into preg_replace_callback but its getting messy and of course not working yet :) would a simpler(?) loop into str_replace work? i have a feeling there's a simple way of doing this out there already and i don't need to reinvent the wheel.

Split String Like 'something.jpg,123'
I am trying to take a string and split it into a filename and a number where the number is what follows the *last* instance of a comma in that string. Split and explode won't work because if the filename part of the original string contains a , then I end up with too many parts. if (!preg_match ('/^(.*),([0-9]+)$/', $string, $matches)) {throwError ();} also fails, because the first part of the regular expression becomes greedy if there is a , in it. I.e. can anyone suggest a solution such that $string = 'something.jpg,123' returns: $matches['filename'] = something.jpg $matches['number'] = 123 $string = 'something,foo.jpg,123' returns: $matches['filename'] = something,foo.jpg $matches['number'] = 123 .............................

Correct String-split And Reassemble?
I need to split a long piece of text from a textarea box into small chunks, then POST these chunks to my credit-card provider, whereupon he will POST them back to my script, which will reassemble them into the original text and display it. This is necessary because my credit-card provider has a limit on all POSTed variables, which must be 255 characters or less each. I thought that this would be simple to do. I used substr to take bites out of the string, then included each piece as a hidden variable in my form. When I received the return POST, I reassembled all the strings using the (.) concatenator, then printed this out. The problem is, pieces of the original text are missing, and there are numerous // escape elements present in the text. Here is my code: $questions = $_POST['questions']; // coming from a previous POST $questions=substr($questions, 0, 3556); // I put a limit on the total string size. $questions0=substr($questions, 0, 254); $questions1=substr($questions, 254, 254); $questions2=substr($questions, 508, 254); $questions3=substr($questions, 762, 254); // etc. <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="questions0" value="<?=$questions0?>" > <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="questions1" value="<?=$questions1?>" > <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="questions2" value="<?=$questions2?>" > <INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="questions3" value="<?=$questions3?>" > // etc. Then I POST the data, and then it comes back to my redirect page, which uses the following code: $questions0=$_POST['questions0']; $questions1=$_POST['questions1']; $questions2=$_POST['questions2']; $questions3=$_POST['questions3']; // etc. $questions=$questions0 . $questions1 . $questions2 . $questions3 . $questions4 . $questions5 . $questions6 . $questions7 . $questions8 . $questions9 . $questions10 . $questions11 . $questions12 . $questions13 .. $questions14; // concatenate it print ($questions); // I display $questions.

Extracting A String With One Split Function, Rather Than Two
One of my scripts reads through a temporary directory, looks at the timestamp of each file (included in the filenames), and determines whether they're old enough to delete. My current challenge is extracting the timestamp from each filename. I'm sure that it can be done with two split() functions, but would optimally like to use one. Here's an example: $file = "usr/www/temp/1173711918_098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6.txt"; $arr = split("_[A-Za-z0-9.]{1,}$", $file); With the code above, $arr[Ɔ'] is "usr/www/temp/1173711918". How would I go about extracting the timestamp using that same split()?

Split A Text String Based On A 10-digit Integer.
I'm trying to split a text string based on a 10-digit integer.

The text I have is delimited and each resulting array value is in reverse chronological order. I want to then reverse the print-out of the array in order to display the array values in the correct chronological order. Here's what I've got now: $str_array = split("/d{10}/",$string); print_r($str_array); The print_r only displays one array element (0), and it contains the entire string. I'm assuming the split command is not recognizing the other 10-digit integers correctly. Any ideas?
