Just to explain the error -
split() takes a regular expression for its first argument; '+' is a
special character for regular expressions, and is not valid by
itself. That's why you're getting an error. For more info on regular
expressions, there have been links to good tutorials that pop up from
time to time on this list; also, I think there are a few references
mentioned in the online docs for the ereg_ and preg_ functions. You
can also get the O'Reilly book 'Mastering regular expressions.'
That being said, though, explode() is probably a better function to
use here. If you don't need the functionality of regexps, explode()
is faster.
