Hi all,
Suppose I have a long string like
$myStr = "$string1:$string2:$string3";
I can obviously explode them using ":" as the separator. But what if
$string1 contains the character ":" by itself?
I was thinking, first I am gonna put an escaping character, so I can do
something like:
$string1

You should strive to make your delimiter uni

Are you adding the delimiter? If so, maybe yo
One set of delimiters I often use for text files is ~~ or ^^. They are
fairly unique. If they do appear in a file then there is probably
garbage in the file and I want to know about. For my templates
"delimiter" I use {::TagName::}. You could use }::{ as your delimiter.
Don't limit yourself to

load a bunch of characters into an array. Do a loop
through that array and check all of your $strings for
the current character in your loop. If the current
array character does not exist in any of them, you
have your delimiter.
I could put together an example if you want me to.

en rebuild the string and delimit it yourself

So FLASH is creating the string that you must decode in PHP? Is there any
way to
do I know
which "_" is my doing? Because in my case, it's faily conceivable that "_"
will get used.

Among other things, this is why XML exists. Use XML. FLASH can handle
it, PHP can handle it, everything out there can handle it. Use XML.
Delimiters will sooner or later break down. Use XML.
Over and out.
