serialize or convernt to a string~
I think string is better~

Ahh..thanks Jordan.. sorry I missed that one and thanks for the info. I
assumed serialize was just magic and worked properly. hah. Now I know.
I always thought it was sloppy to use anyway, but in a pinch, it's nice to know
there's an option like that. Imploding does sound better though.

Yes, this has been mentioned in this thread. But with serialize/
unserialize, you can run into other problems that may be more

Sorry, didn't catch this thread from the beginning, but did anyone recommend
trying the serialize() and unserialize() commands? They'll convert the array
to a block of text that can be stored, retrieved and unserialized.
My gut instinct is that if you're trying to store any array in a database,
if you just have a simple array with automatic numeric keys and text
you could just implode the data to a string with a separator not
found in your data:
$dataArray = array("hello", "goodbye", "etc.");
$storable = implode("", $dataArray);
// $storable becomes "hellogoodbyeetc."
//
yes, check out the serialize and unserialize fuinctions in the manual
(www.php.net/serialize)
