Answer 4

I'm assuming you mean a space character for this answer. instead of thinking in terms of explode() you should think in terms of "find the first character and split the string there."

$pos = strpos($inputString, ' ');
$part1 = substr($inputString, 0, $pos);
$part2 = substr($inputString, $pos+1);

Answer 5

set limit parameter

print_r(explode(' ', $str, 2));
