function::tokenize - Return the next non-empty token in a string
SYNOPSIS
tokenize:string(input:string,delim:string)
ARGUMENTS
input
string to tokenize. If NULL, returns the next non-empty token in the string passed in the previous call to tokenize.

This function returns the next non-empty token in the given input string, where the tokens are delimited by characters in the delim string.
If the input string is non-NULL, it returns the first token. If the input string is NULL, it returns the next token in the string passed in

STRTOK(3) 1 STRTOK(3)strtok - Tokenize stringSYNOPSIS
string strtok (string $str, string $token)
DESCRIPTION
string strtok (string $token)
strtok(3) splits a string ($str) into smaller strings (tokens), with each token being delimited by any character from $token. That is, if
you have a string like "This is an example string" you could tokenize this string into its individual words by using the space character as
the token.
Note that only the first call to strtok uses the string argument. Every subsequent call to strtok only needs the token to use, as it keeps
track of where it is in the current string. To start over, or to tokenize a new string you simply call strtok with the string argument
again to initialize it. Note that you may put multiple tokens in the token parameter. The string will be tokenized when any one of the
characters in the argument are found.
PARAMETERS
o $str
- The string being split up into smaller strings (tokens).
o $token
- The delimiter used when splitting up $str.
RETURN VALUES
A string token.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
strtok(3) example
<?php
$string = "This is an example
string";
/* Use tab and newline as tokenizing characters as well */
$tok = strtok($string, "
");
while ($tok !== false) {
echo "Word=$tok<br />";
$tok = strtok("
");
}
?>
The behavior when an empty part was found changed with PHP 4.1.0. The old behavior returned an empty string, while the new, correct,
behavior simply skips the part of the string:
Example #2
Old strtok(3) behavior
<?php
$first_token = strtok('/something', '/');
$second_token = strtok('/');
var_dump($first_token, $second_token);
?>
The above example will output:
string(0) ""
string(9) "something"
Example #3
New strtok(3) behavior
<?php
$first_token = strtok('/something', '/');
$second_token = strtok('/');
var_dump($first_token, $second_token);
?>
The above example will output:
string(9) "something"
bool(false)
NOTES
Warning
This function may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE. Please read the section on
Booleans for more information. Use the === operator for testing the return value of this function.
