[shanicaries]

Best tutorials I have encountered so far, I learned more from here than our online classes. Thank you!

[rtagliavia]

awesome tutorials, best teacher ever!!!

[elhabibbirouk]

Thank you for your tutorials. They are useful and interesting.. Now if I may suggest a little improvment, it will be to use <pre> when it comes to print arrays for best readibility:
echo '<pre>';
print_r('myArray');
echo '</pre>';

[srinivasaraoyp]

I made it alternatively putting explode into a variable to have a better overall understanding:

outside html:
<?php $pizzaexplosion = explode(", ", $pizza['ingredients']); ?>

and then inside html:
<li> <?php foreach($pizzaexplosion as $ing) {echo ; } ?> </li>


OR ALTERNATIVELY in order to have new lines using just one <li> but without using <br> :

<ul>
<?php foreach($splodcine as $carattcin) { ?>
<li> <?php echo ?> </li>
</ul>

[zahidshaikh]

explode() function sounds good. hahaha

[cedric_ds]

would it be better to but ', ' as a delimiter string instead? (the comma AND the SPACE between the ingredients)

[dhirajpardeshi]

I want to display comma separated images from single column in an carousel, i tried same function but getting error

[shuttereffct]

Another way to do this is use js split func.

Hello my code errors
Warning: mysqli_query() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli, boolean given in on line 20
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in on line 37
what shall I do ?
My code look the same with Mr.Shaun!

[yamacode]

Can you please tell me what this error means "Warning: mysqli_free_result() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, bool" and "Warning: mysqli_fetch_all() expects parameter 1 to be mysqli_result, bool ". Its driving me crazy, I even copied the code from your github for lesson 27 but i still get the same error.

[deejayerick]

Hey Shaun thanks... there are some unwanted space between the li tag how can i erase it?

[natnaelghirma]

Please Mr.Net ninja do larevel framework next. Php without a framework is like a bike with one wheel. You can ride it but it will be really hard.
