Split the string to array based on seperator
i have a html editor and i have a data like below,
<p>Author Name, Department</p>
<p>##SEPERATOR##</p>
<p>Author Name, Department</p>
<p>##SEPERATOR##</p>
<p>Author Name, Department</p>
<p>##SEPERATOR##</p>
<p>Author Name, Department</p>
Here i am trying to explode above data using the separator ##SEPERATOR## keyword.
i have a code like below,
$arraycontent = explode('##SEPERATOR##', $text);
dd($arraycontent);
Above code is working fine but it is not removing the <p></p> between the separator.
the response is like below,
array:4 [▼
0 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p><p>"
1 => "</p><p>Author Name, Department</p><p>"
2 => "</p><p>Author Name, Department</p><p>"
3 => "</p><p>Author Name, Department</p>"
]
Here at 0 index <p> tag is opening and at index 1 </p> tag is closing i want to strip this one too in explode. how to do this? so that response should be like below,
array:4 [▼
0 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
1 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
2 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
3 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
]

Really?
Try this:
$arraycontent = explode('<p>##SEPERATOR##</p>', $text);
dd($arraycontent);

@Dunsti Thank you for the reply but the concern is what if it has different tag?
Level 18
@Deekshith Then don't use tag.

You could use a Stringable chain, eg.
Str::of($text)
->explode("\n") // array item for every new line character
->filter() // remove empty lines
->reject(fn ($line) => str_contains($line, '##SEPERATOR##')) // remove by SEPARATOR keyword
->values(); // re-key the array

@tykus this one adding extra \r like below,
#items: array:10 [▼
0 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
1 => "\r"
2 => "\r"
3 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
4 => "\r"
5 => "\r"
6 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
7 => "\r"
8 => "\r"
9 => "<p>Author Name, Department</p>"
]

@Deekshith it is adding \r, that information is already there; just filter it out
