Re: use of str_split

Looks like the function str_split() is a PHP 5 addition, so I guess it
might be because you are using php 4?

You can also do this with substr() function...
Something like this:
$str = "abcdefg";
$arr = Array();
for($i=0; $i< strlen($str); $i++) {
$arr[] = substr($str, $i, 1);
}
print_r($arr);
?>

Are you using PHP 5? That function does not exist in PHP 4.

// NB: UNTESTED

$string = 'This is a string';
$certainlength = 5;
$pos = 0;
$stringlen = strlen($string);
$array = array();
while ($pos < $stringlen)
{
$array[] = substr($string, $pos, $certainlength);
$pos += $certainlength;
}

// $array now contains an element for every $certainlength characters
// in $string

explode(delimiter, $string);
=20
is the correct function
=20
=20
=20

Re: use of str_split

This was my initial thought too, but from the manual:

If /delimiter/ is an empty string (""), *explode()* will return *FALSE*.
If /delimiter/ contains a value that is not contained in /string/, then
*explode()* will return an array containing /string/.

So, this would not satisfy the functionality the OP alluded to.
