Hi,

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

John Smith<john.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

I need to parse the string into two variables as such

$name = John Smith
$email = john.smith@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

What would be the easiest way to do this?

Thanks.

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

John Smith's email address is js@xxxxxxx

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