Ok, I have written code to go through the file grabbing pretty much what I
need. Now in the array after explode ($oldline=explode("|", $buffer);) I
need to split apart $oldline[9]. Each element should hold no more than 4000
characters. So I will dump this all into a new array. What would be the
best way to do this?
