[SOLVED] Regex for #-

[Matrixkid]

Hi there,

 

I have a string that looks like this;

2-Name,3-Name,4-Name,5-Name,6-Name,7-name

 

Im trying to preg_split the string into an array so that all im left with is name,

I can remove the comma no problem once its split up

 

I have tried the following:

 

$array_name = preg_split("/[0-9][-]/",$names);
$array_name = preg_split("/[0-9-]/",$names);
$array_name = preg_split("/[0-9]-]/",$names);

 

Thanks for your help!

Cheers

MK

This just gets "name", and takes the comma out as well.  If you want to take the comma out yourself then remove ',?'.

 

$names = "2-Name,3-Name,4-Name,5-Name,6-Name,7-name";
$array_name = preg_split("/,?\d-/",$names);
print_r($array_name);

?>
