Say I have a string "hello world [stuff] //code source [/stuff] bla bla bla". How can I split this string each time the function encounters the stuff tag? So far I have tried split("[[stuff].[/stuff]]",$str) with no luck. I also tried several variations and the strtok() method.

explode() may be more easily handled.

I need to open it on a [stuff] tag and a closing [/stuff] tag but explode only takes one separator.

you can call it on the resulting array elements.

sounds like I'm gonna need a recurisve function.
EDIT: Nevermind, I think I found a non mind twisting way
