Insert A Comma Seperated String Into An Array – explode()

If you need to insert a comma seperated string into a variable you can accomplish this with the following code.

Let’s take a look at our string.

$myString = "3,8,18,22";

We can insert our string into an array by simply using the explode() function.

$newString = explode(',', $myString);

Now if we use the print_r() function we can view our array.

print_r($newString);

We should now see the following.

Array ( [0] => 3,8,18,22 )

Enjoy!!
