I have an array like the one below, which actually collects login and other data from a user submitted form, to be written to a DB. I don't need all the form data, and hence this approach.
$array['a'] = $_POST['userName'];
$array['a'] .= $_POST['passWord'];
Which results in:
$array['a'] = 'username@example.com';
$array['a'] .= 'password';
I'm trying to get values from the array as a string, sperated by , or ::, but just cannot figure how to do it.
Using implode gives me a continious string like username@example.compassword
$comma_separated = implode($array);
echo $comma_separated;
Is it somehow possible to get a string like ::username@example.com ::passpword from the array without a for loop.
The approach cannot be changed since it's already in a working site.
I'm using PHP 7.0 on a Windows 10 Machine for testing.
There are two issues in your code:
implode();array index How to achieve this result?
::username@example.com ::password
You can achieve this result by using this:
// example with your code
$array['a'] = 'username@example.com';
$array['b'] = 'password';
echo "::".implode("::",$array);
Result:
::username@example.com::password
Some Optimization:
As you mentioned you are using form with POST method than you can use like that:
echo "::".implode("::",$_POST); //::username@example.com::password
Few Suggestion:
Add error_reporting at the top of the file for getting errors.
