I have this string:
type=openBook&bookid=&guid=7AD92237-D3C7-CD3E-C052-019E1EBC16B8&authorid=&uclass=2&view=
Then I want to get all the values after the "=" sign so for the "type" i want to get "openBook" and put this in an array.
Note: even if it is null it must be added to the array so i wont loose track..
So how can i do that.
Many Thanks
I think you want parse_str:
<?php
$str = "first=value&arr[]=foo+bar&arr[]=baz";
parse_str($str);
echo $first; // value
echo $arr[0]; // foo bar
echo $arr[1]; // baz
parse_str($str, $output);
echo $output['first']; // value
echo $output['arr'][0]; // foo bar
echo $output['arr'][1]; // baz
?>
I'm not sure what you mean by this bit:
Note: even if it is null it must be added to the array so i wont loose track..
If parse_str doesn't work quite as you want post a comment and I'll try and help.
You can take a look to explode();
<?php
$foo = "type=openBook&bookid=&guid=7AD92237-D3C7-CD3E-C052-019E1EBC16B8&authorid=&uclass=2&view=";
$chuncks = explode('&', $foo);
$data = array();
foreach ($chuncks as $chunck)
{
$bar = explode('=', $chunck);
$data[$bar[0]] = $bar[1];
}
var_dump($data);
$first = split("&", "type=openBook&bookid=&guid=7AD92237-D3C7-CD3E-C052-019E1EBC16B8&authorid=&uclass=2&view=");
foreach($first as $value) {
list($key, $val) = split("=", $value);
$arr[$key] = $val;
}
echo $arr['type']; // openBook
