Hi,

I am pulling email values out of a database and the format is as follows:

John Smith<john.sm...@somedomain.com>

I need to parse the string into two variables as such

$name = John Smith
$email = john.sm...@somedomain.com

What would be the easiest way to do this?

Thanks.

[kad...@archangel][~/scripts] cat split
<?php
        $data="John Smith<j...@foo.com>";
        list($name,$email)=explode("<",str_replace(">","",$data));
        echo "$name's email address is $email";
?>

John Smith's email address is j...@foo.com

Throw in a foreach() and some data writes or w/e, and you're done.
