Can you post an example of code that will do that. You must be doing
something else that removes the empty values.

That is what explode should give you, if you got nothing in between
two separators. If you take Toby's code without the while/str_replace,
then you should get:
Array
(
[0] => folder
[1] =>
[2] => subfolder
[3] =>
[4] =>
[5] =>
[6] =>
[7] => somefile
)
