how to explode and exploded string - php

Question

I've a string of text like this:
Intro Title ### Some description ### a link \\\
Intro Title Two ### Description Two ### link 2 \\\
And so ... can be infinite
I use explode to be able to access and the different parts of the string.
$test = explode('###', $string);
echo $test[0]; // outputs: Intro Title
echo $test[1]; // outputs: Some description
and till here it's working fine. But I need to be able to access as well the second part the same way
echo $test[0]; // to output: Intro Title Two
I've tried with a foreach, but it seems to work
foreach ($string as $key) {
$second = explode('\\\', $key);
}
I can't figure out how to do it.

Answer 1

$string ="Intro Title ### Some description ### a link \\\
Intro Title Two ### Description Two ### link 2 \\\
And so ... can be infinite";
$firstExplode = explode('###', $string);
foreach ($firstExplode as $key) {
$secondExplode = explode("\\\\", $key);
var_dump($secondExplode);
}
Note here I use four backslashes instead of just the 3 due to escaping issues.

To answer you question
You can explode on the new-lines first and then in a foreach loop explode on your delimitter. Then you wouldn't even need the back slashes at the end of each line anymore.
<?php
$i = 0;
$lines = explode("\n", $string);
foreach($lines as $line) {
$data[$i] = explode('###', $line);
$i++;
}
To improve your code:
Unless you really depend on this custom file format I would recommend using a standard format like xml, yml or json.
The simplest approach woulr probably be json:
<?php
$string <<<EOT
[
{ "title": "Intro Title", "Description": "Some description", "link": "a link" },
{ "title": "Intro Title 2", "Description": "Some other description", "link": "a second link" }
]
EOT;
$data = json_decode($string, true);
print_r($data);

If it is one string :
$string ="Intro Title ### Some description ### a link \\\
Intro Title Two ### Description Two ### link 2 \\\
And so ... can be infinite";
$string_parts = explode("\\\",$string);
foreach($string_parts as $key=>$val){
$temp = explode('###', $val);
echo $temp[0]; // outputs: Intro Title
echo $temp[1]; // outputs: Some description
}
