parsing through strings (php)

I'm helping out someone with a cybernations database and he wants to be able to take the mynation page, copy and paste it into the database (which puts it into a string variable) , put _ wherever there are spaces and then parse through the string for certain data and put that data into double varaibles.  I don't know a damn thing about php, How would I do this?

i love big weenies and i cannot lie

Re: parsing through strings (php)

Explain "Parse through" - you can split it into an array using explode(), or you can go through it letter by letter... Or if you're up for it you can try using preg_replace(), depends entirely on what you're trying to do. Probably explode() will be best.

To change every space into an underscore, do:
$str= str_replace(" ", "_", $str);
