string manipulation...

[mkosmosports]

Hey,

 

Ive got the below strings:

 

100-500

3450-7890

 

Is there a function I can use to extract the strings before and after the "-"?

 

Thanks!

explode()

 

<?php
        $string1 = '100-500';
        $string2 = '3450-7890';

        $array1 = explode('-', $string1);
        $array2 = explode('-', $string2);
?>

Thanks boo lolly. That works.

 

Ive created another method though that doesnt require creating arrays (I need strings in the end anyways).

 

Here it is using the below string:

 

        $string1 = '100-500';

 

$lowval = substr("$string1",0,strpos("$string1","-")); //Number before -

$highval = substr(strstr("$string1","-"),1); //Number after -

list($low, $high) = explode('-', $string);
