How would you split a string which is seperated by * with PHP?

Like "abc*def*ghi" into "abc","def","ghi"?

Any clues? Thanks in advance :)

    $origString = "abc*def*ghi";
    $tokens = explode("*",$origString);

    $token[0] ---> abc
    $token[1] ---> def
    ...

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
    (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

try

array = explode("*", "abc*def*ghi");

That will put it into and array called array with 3 parts to it.
