Re: [PHP] Count the Number of Elements Using Explode

Hi Alice,

U can simple do:
$nr = ( strlen( $message ) / 2 ) + 1 );
$nr = count( explode( '|', $message );

Hi,

I have a code snippet here as follows:

$message="1|2|3|4|5";
$stringChunks = explode("|", $message);

Is it possible to find out the number of elements in this string? It
seems that I could do things like print_r and find out what is the last
element of $stringChunks is, but is there a way where I can use code from
the two lines and have it print out 5 as the number of elements that
contains after the splitting?
