You're just trying to print a list of words, one per line?
print join('<br>', explode(' ', 'Why am I trying?'));
or, broken into steps in case you want to deal more with the array:
$ar = explode(' ', 'Why am I trying?');
foreach ($ar as $word)
{
print "<br>$word";
}
I didn't look that carefully at your code because it was making my head
hurt. Perhaps if you can explain better what you're trying to achieve (if
the computer can't figure it out, neither can we) then I could provide
more specific and helpful advice.
