Failing at using Explode; help?

[Cultureshock]

I have a table that holds info. One column in particular holds tags(

while(mysql_fetch_array($example)){aka $tags=['tags']};

) which are separated by commas (ex. $tags= love, hate, like, dislike). I want to turn this string into an array to link each seperated word into links

<a href="?tag=love">love</a> <a href="?tag=hate">hate</a> etc

I thought doing

while(explode(",", $tags)){ echo "<a href='?tag=".$tag."'>".$tag."</a>";};

would work but instead it takes the page a long time to load, and once it DOES load, the first tag is repeated 100s of times.

 

 

Assistance, please I don't know if the problem is in the while(explode()) or if it's in something else related to the $tags, but everything else not exploded is working correctly, soo.

You don't want the actual explode within your while expression. Post your actual code.

or at least not a while()...

 

foreach(array('love','hate','like','dislike') as $v) echo $v;
foreach(explode(',','love,hate,like,dislike') as $v) echo $v;

Foreach worked! Thanks so much, I didn't remember foreach()... if I had I'd have used it Thanks again!
