It's always best to show your current code.

 

Basically you can just echo the results on the same echo line.

echo "$date $string <br />";

 

or

echo $date." ". $string."<br />";

 

or even style it in a divider with css

echo "<div class='mystyle'>$date $string</div>";

 

Is other ways as well.

this is mycode

$data = "|2011-07-04_This is a sample text|2011-07-14_this is a second sample text "; -  this text a sample coming from database

$explodeTilde = explode('_', $data);

foreach($explodeTilde as $k => $v)

{

    $explodePipe = explode('|', $v);

    foreach($explodePipe as $k2 => $v2)

{

$date_entered = date("m/d/Y", strtotime($v2));

        echo "<br>";

echo $v2 . '';

 

 

    }

}

I did 2 different examples, removed extra pipe beginning, then exploded the data, then echo by each exploded position

 

is your date saved as that actual date value? if it is you don't need to use the strtotime and date function

look at the difference for both examples

//example 1
$data = "|2011-07-04_This is a sample text|2011-07-14_this is a second sample text ";
$data = ltrim($data,"|");
$explodedata = explode('|', $data);
foreach($explodedata as $exdata)
{
   $exdata = explode('_', $exdata);
    $date_entered = date("Y-m-d", strtotime($exdata[0]));
      echo $date_entered ."  ". $exdata[1]."<br />";

}

example 2
$data = "|2011-07-04_This is a sample text|2011-07-14_this is a second sample text ";
$data = ltrim($data,"|");
$explodedata = explode('|', $data);
foreach($explodedata as $exdata)
{
   $exdata = explode('_', $exdata);
      echo $exdata[0] ."<br />". $exdata[1]."<br /><br />";

}

 

output for each would be:

2011-07-04 This is a sample text

2011-07-14 this is a second sample text

 

and

2011-07-04

This is a sample text

 

2011-07-14

this is a second sample text

oops, forgot to comment example 2

 

//example 1
$data = "|2011-07-04_This is a sample text|2011-07-14_this is a second sample text ";
$data = ltrim($data,"|");
$explodedata = explode('|', $data);
foreach($explodedata as $exdata)
{
   $exdata = explode('_', $exdata);
    $date_entered = date("Y-m-d", strtotime($exdata[0]));
      echo $date_entered ."  ". $exdata[1]."<br />";

}

//example 2
$data = "|2011-07-04_This is a sample text|2011-07-14_this is a second sample text ";
$data = ltrim($data,"|");
$explodedata = explode('|', $data);
foreach($explodedata as $exdata)
{
   $exdata = explode('_', $exdata);
      echo $exdata[0] ."<br />". $exdata[1]."<br /><br />";

}
