     That is, if you have a string like "This is an example string" you
     could tokenize this string into its individual words by using the
     space character as the token.

>&#13;     Note that only the first call to strtok uses the string argument.
     Every subsequent call to strtok only needs the token to use, as
     it keeps track of where it is in the current string.  To start
     over, or to tokenize a new string you simply call strtok with the
     string argument again to initialize it.  Note that you may put
     multiple tokens in the token parameter.  The string will be
     tokenized when any one of the characters in the argument are
     found.

>&#13;     The behavior when an empty part was found changed with PHP 4.1.0. The old
     behavior returned an empty string, while the new, correct, behavior
     simply skips the part of the string:
