spliti()

spliti - Split string into array by regular expression case insensitive

Syntax

array spliti (string $pattern, string $string, int $limit)

Arguments

• pattern - Case insensitive regular expression. If you want to split on any of the characters which are considered special by regular expressions, you\'ll need to escape them first. If you think spliti() (or any other regex function, for that matter) is doing something weird, please read the file regex.7, included in the regex/subdirectory of the PHP distribution. It\'s in manpage format, so you\'ll want to do something along the lines of man /usr/local/src/regex/regex.7in order to read it.
• string - The input string.
• limit - If limit is set, the returned array will contain a maximum of limit elements with the last element containing the whole rest of string.

Description

Splits a string into array by regular expression.

Version

PHP 4.0.1, 5

Return value

Returns an array of strings, each of which is a substring of string formed by splitting it on boundaries formed by the case insensitive regular expression pattern.
