Topic: Best Way to Fix a Split

[DaculaWeather]

How can I fix this?  My hosting server is running Php7 and splits are a no-no.

// strip trailing units from a measurement
function strip_unit ($data) {
  preg_match('/([\d\.\+\-]+)/',$data,$t);
  return $t[1];
}

// THIS PORTION IS COURTESY OF RAINER AT http://www.bashewa.com
// now split temps and dates for warmest/coldest night/day records
   list($mwarmestdayonrecord_temp, $date) = split("[ ]+on:[ ]+", $mwarmestdayonrecord);
   $date = strtotime($date);
   $mwarmestdayonrecord_date = date($SITE['dateOnlyFormat'],$date);

   list($mwarmestnightonrecord_temp, $date) = split("[ ]+on:[ ]+", $mwarmestnightonrecord);
   $date = strtotime($date);
   $mwarmestnightonrecord_date = date($SITE['dateOnlyFormat'],$date);

   list($mcoldestdayonrecord_temp, $date) = split("[ ]+on:[ ]+", $mcoldestdayonrecord);
   $date = strtotime($date);
   $mcoldestdayonrecord_date = date($SITE['dateOnlyFormat'],$date);

   list($mcoldestnightonrecord_temp, $date) = split("[ ]+on:[ ]+", $mcoldestnightonrecord);
   $date = strtotime($date);
   $mcoldestnightonrecord_date = date($SITE['dateOnlyFormat'],$date);

// end of functions

Ahh... the split() function was removed in PHP7.

You can change all the

Code: [Select]

split("[ ]+on:[ ]+", to

Code: [Select]

preg_split("|\s+on:\s+|", and I think that will fix it up.
