[Solved] Need some help with Explode();

[as3k]

Hey all,

Im new to the board and wanted to see if you all could help me out.
Im currently trying to display an image using the explode(); function.
I looked at tutorials online and tried to search the forum but im not finding
anything. A snippet of code is attatched to this can anybody tell me what im doing
wrong?

Thanks in advance
Zack

My string to be exploded was like this "http://www.anyurl.com/img.png|altTag"

Code:

ID, ‘specials’ , true);

$img = explode(“|”,$SpecialOffers);

$imgUrl = $img[0];
$imgAlt = $img[1];

echo ““;
?>

I had the code as this before and it didnt give me errors, but did not show the content.

Code:

ID, ‘specials’ , true);

$img = explode(“|”,$SpecialOffers);

$imgUrl = $img[0];
$imgAlt = $img[1];

?>

Not sure if the space in $post-> ID is causing a problem. Might be better to change it to $post->ID.

Looks like you have correctly created your $img variable, you just need to echo it to output it.

As long as the list you are trying to explode is separated with "|" and not a standard "," you should be fine :)

Thanks again guys

This should also be useful for future reference….

Code:

echo ““;

The problem with this code is that the quotes for the attributes need to have backslashes in front of them like this..

Code:

echo ““;
