I have a string which always has "C" then a number which it's length can

like:

echo "C60P1 Unit";

This doesn't match your description... there's a number after the 'P' :)

is it anyway to split the string by type?

from the manual I did this:

function multiexplode ($delimiters,$string) {
     $ary = explode($delimiters[0],$string);
     array_shift($delimiters);
     if($delimiters != NULL) {
         foreach($ary as $key => $val) {
              $ary[$key] = multiexplode($delimiters, $val);
         }
     }
     return  $ary;
}
echo "C60P1 Unit";
$str="C60P1 Unit";
$delimiters = Array("C","P"," ");
$res = multiexplode($delimiters,$str);
echo '<pre>';
print_r($res);
echo '</pre>';

but it seems to me it is so complex for such a small string
does anything for type exist which I don't know about to for example just
grab the numbers?because I just care about the numbers here 60 and 1
seperately

<?php

$str = 'C60P1 Unit';
$num = preg_replace( '#^[^[:digit:]]+([[:digit:]]+).*$#', '\1', $str );

?>

Cheers,
Rob.
