CONVERT ANY FORMATTED STRING INTO VARIABLES
I developed a online payment solution for credit cards using a merchant, and this merchant returns me an answer of the state of the transaction like this:
estado=1,txnid=5555444-8454445-4455554,monto=100.00
to have all that data into variables could be fine for me! so i use str_replace(), the problem is this function recognizes each group of variables with the & character... and i have comma separated values... so i replace comma with &
<?php
$string = "estado=1,txnid=5555444-8454445-4455554,monto=100.00";
$string = str_replace(",","&",$string);
parse_str($string);
echo $monto; ?>
