Or you could use hash instead of string to store data. Hashes work basicly like arrays but you can use string as key/index value and assosiate it with another string.
And if you like to give that hash ie. as parameter to a another php-script, one could use: $param = serialise($myHash); ... $hash = unserialise($param); .. you got the idea ? :) On Fri, 15 Nov 2002, Ewout de Boer wrote: > You could try something like this: > > > $verylongstring > $data = ... // your cut function > $verylongstring = substr($verylongstring, strln($data); > > > > regards, > > Ewout de Boer > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Hacook" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, November 15, 2002 11:39 AM > Subject: [PHP] Need difficult help ! > > > > Hi all, > > I have a very long charachter chain which is like that : > > > > Number*link*name*Number*link*name*Number*link*name*Number*link*name* > > > > I made a php script to cut it thanks to the "*" to make a list with a > > number, and the name hyperlinked to the link. > > The thing is that after i get a data (number, link or name), i use > > str_replace to cut it off the chain to get the next one. > > But as my numbers are sometime the same, i have troubles because it cuts > all > > the same numbers off. > > Can i just cut one ? > > Thanks a lot for reading me and maybe answer me ? :-) > > > > > > > > -- > > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > > > > > > > > > -- Lauri Jakku [ lauridotjakkuatwapicedotcom ] \-^-/ .- Idiots try to maintain Tel : +358 40 823 6353 / +358 6 321 6159 ( o o ) order, We can control Addr: Ahventie 22-24 N 150/1, 62500 Vaasa _o00o___o00o_ chaos. { nospam.org } http://www.wapice.com/~lauri/gnupg.key.asc -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
