The function you are looking for is 'explode'. It works like this, say you
have a line of text stored in line of say pizza topping like this:
$pizza_toppings = "topping1,topping2,topping3"
and now you want the toppings in an array just do this:
$toppings = explode(",", $pizza_toppings);
then you will have an array $toppings with entries for each of the toppings.
Hope this helps.
