[SOLVED] Split Variable Into 2

[Ell20]

Hi,

 

I have a variable at the moment called $name which contain a name of someone for example "Ryan Giggs".

 

Is there anyway in which I can split that variable into 2?

 

e.g $first = "Ryan" and $last = "Giggs"

 

Thanks for your help

Yes.

 

list ($first,$last) = explode(" ",$name);
