Actually, you can treat a string as an array without any further processing:
$Globbot = 'dribcot';
echo $Globbot[0]; # echoes 'd'
echo $Globbot[6]; # echoes 't'
Check out 'String access by character' about halfway down the page at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php
(or, in Portuguese,
http://www.php.net/manual/pt_BR/language.types.string.php
).
Actually, using the [] syntax is deprecated - using {} is the new way
- but I'm a creature of habit...
