ERROR:  Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in... /adminPage.php on line 262

 

how would code look when (if) replaced with "explode"

 

260        <?
261        if($dtime){
262        $m=split('[-," "]',$dtime);
263        $s=date("jS F Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $m[1], $m[2], $m[0]));
264        }

 

 

thanx in advance,

The right tool for the job.  In this case, it would be preg_split, not explode. Explode only handles one dilimiter.

<?
if($dtime){
    $m=preg_split("/ (-|\s|) /",$dtime);
    $s=date("jS F Y", mktime(0, 0, 0, $m[1], $m[2], $m[0]));
}

thanx for responding.  ahhh. preg_split.   code worked awesomely with minor change on line 263

 

$m=preg_split("/[\- ]/",$dtime);

 

 

help much appreciated.

 

cheerz!

"/ (-|\s|) /"  

Are the spaces for readability or is this not "/(-|\s|)/" ?

 

I don't like "sed" myself because it does not meet my immediate needs.  Stream editing:  apples are apples, oranges are oranges.  The underling concept is there.

I always choose rpl over sed day to day because sed is so prone to miss firing.  Besides this the numerous variations of regexp which will accomplish quite the same objective is trivial functionality at best.  Not precisely hamfisted but I can read '[-," "]' and I don't see any clever ways to disguise just this.
