Hello everyone, I was wondering how could I split a string in PHP and ad a “\<br\>” at the end of each line. For example mi string is:

1.Something 2.Something else 3.Something else.

I want the string to look like this:  
1.Something\<br\>  
2.Something else \<br\>  
3.Something else.  
I’f anyone please could help me… I’ve tried everithing, from strtoken to substr, and I can’t get it right.

Thanks
