PHP在空格后分割文本

Question

I have created a form that has a name and email address input.

Name: John Smith
Email: [e-mail]

What I want to do is split the name in to first name and surname from the posted.

How would I go about doing this?

Answer 1

Assuming you are escaping user input and there is a validation to add space between name.

If that is already not implemented you could implement them otherwise consider to use separate input box for both first name and last name.

$name=explode(" ",$_POST['name']);
echo $name[0]; //first name
echo $name[1];// last name
