Splitting custom $_GET?

[Chotor]

I need to split a $_GET into its separate fields.

 

$_GET can contain the following fields:

type

product

size

year

country

(and their respective values)

It can contain any of these (or all of them).

For example

getXML?type=1,2,7/size=2/country=5

 

I want ONLY the element WITH values

For example:

type={1,2,7}
size={2}
country={5}
year <- not set
product <- not set

 

Because later in the code I have a check

if(isset($country) && $country!=null) {...}

Currently this evaluates to TRUE with my way of $_GET. I DON'T want this to happen.

That's why I'm looking for a good method of splitting the $_GET into only the applicable fields.

 

This is my current code:

$countries = split(",", $_GET['country']);
$years = split(",", $_GET{'year'});

[huesped214]

if (isset($_GET['country']))

{

$countries = split(",", $_GET['country']);

}

 

 

if(isset($country) && $country!=null) {...}

Haha! You're right. Thanks for pointing that out.

 

I was looking for a more elegant solution. Perhaps something involving implode/explode.

But this will do for now.
