Hmmm.. that's going to create a 5 element array assigned to $fields. So,
using /etc/passwd as an example...
philip:*:1000:1000:Philip Hallstrom:/local/home/philip:/bin/tcsh
$fields is going to look like this:
0 = philip
1 = *
2 = 1000
3 = 1000
4 = Philip Hallstrom:/local/home/philip:/bin/tcsh
I think what he really wants is:
$fields = explode(':', $string);
$fullname = $fields[4]; // Philip Hallstrom
-philip
