[PHP-DB] explode string variable

2003-03-08 Thread André Sannerholt 
Hi everyone!

Does anybody know how to stop an explosion of a string: Let me explain:

$variable_aray=explode('-', $variable);

I want the variable to be devided in only two other ones! If for example:

$variable=Willy-Brandt-Platz-5

I want to have an array that looks like this:

$variable_array[0] should be Willy
$variable_array[1] should be Brandt-Platz


Regards

André

Wrong list since doesn't involve databases.  Should be on PHP-General.  That
said, use strtok:
