Question

I’m trying to customize an existing opensource script and ran into a snag. In the processing file, I’m using the following line to retrieve the user’s input from a form they submit.

$listingKeywords = $_POST["listingKeywords"];

The user is asked in the form to enter the keywords with a comma in between each one (example: Keyword One, Keyword Two). Within the processing file, I have the following…

$keyword_list = array(
'1'=>"HTML5",
'2'=>"CSS3",
'3'=>"PHP",
);

This is being used later on like so:

foreach ($keyword_list as $key=>$value)

Basically I’m looking for a way to split $listingKeywords by comma and then set the $key via $i++. I know it’s simple and I’m just asking for someone to point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Answer 1

$arr = explode("," $content);

is this what you want?

Just remember to use trim before putting them into a database, people well tend to do use value1, value2, value3
