explode problems

[bftwofreak]

I seem to be having issues with my explode();

Here's my code snippet:

$num[$i] = '6Â (0.001)';
$num[$i] = explode('Â ', $num[$i], 2);

echo $num[$i][0];

When I do that it returns the entire initial string...

When I ran that code I got '6' returned. ???

what's your print_r(); of the array?

This is the code I used:

$i = 1;

$num[$i] = '6Â (0.001)';
$num[$i] = explode('Â ', $num[$i], 2);

echo "<pre>", print_r($num[$i]), "</pre>";

 

This is the output:

Array
(
    [0] => 6
    [1] => (0.001)
)
