[/quote] Thanks for your reply This gets the values into an array which is what i needed...but...for some reason its leaving out all the records that are delimited by a | - is there a way I can include all records in the array even if they don't have a | Thanks

What you could try, is to change $arrayselect =, to $arrayselect[] = this way you'd create an array inside an array, not overwriting the data you had. [/quote] Hi Desdinova, Thanks for your reply. When I change the array to $arrayselect[] and echo $arrayselect[$i] i get an output of "Array" What i would like to happen if each time the loop runs the value of the explode be appended onto the array. Thanks for your assistance biz

Hi, I have a database field which is taking text which is delimited by a | The data is going into the field from a multiple selection list. Now I need a way of reporting on the entered data. I was trying to use a do while loop to append data to the array which was created by the explode function, but as I found out the array is getting written over each time the loop is ran. At the moment my code reads [code] do { $arrayselect = explode("|", $row_infowouldlikebeincluded['infowouldlikebeincluded']); } while ($row_infowouldlikebeincluded = mysql_fetch_assoc($infowouldlikebeincluded)); [/code] What I would like to happen is I need to count the number of times an individual row item occurs in the column. This item may be in a row with a delimited string e.g. Info|General Use or it may not be e.g. Info I'm not sure how to go about this, any help is appreciated Thanks biz
