cutting content from returned array with php

Question

I am trying to cut results out of the RBL data it pulls back.

Here is the code.

<?
$ips = file("list.inc");
foreach($ips as $ip)
{
$rblurl = 'http://rbl-check.org/rbl_api.php?ipaddress=' . trim($ip);
$boom = fopen($rblurl, "r");
$rbl = stream_get_contents($boom);
echo "</br>";
$data = explode(";",$rbl);
print "<pre>";
print_r($data[0]);
print "</pre>";
echo "</br>";
//fclose($boom);
}
?>

This is the result.

emailbasura;bl.emailbasura.org;nowebsite;notlisted
Sorbs;zombie.dnsbl.sorbs.net;nowebsite;notlisted
msrbl;combined.rbl.msrbl.net;nowebsite;notlisted
nixspam;ix.dnsbl.manitu.net;nowebsite;notlisted
Spamcop;bl.spamcop.net;nowebsite;notlisted

I am trying to cut the first part and the last part so it only displays this.

emailbasura notlisted
Sorbs notlisted
msrbl notlisted
nixspam notlisted
Spamcop notlisted

Any help would be great!

Or read it as CSV with semicolons being the delimiter, see str_getcsv(). You forgot to break up the lines beforehand, btw. — mario

How can the result contain ; when you just have exploded on ;? I would expect the result to be just emailbasura. And you need to do it line-by-line of course. — jeroen

first you need to explode the data by the line breaks not just the delimeter:

$data = explode("\n",$rbl);

once you've done that you just echo out the data:

foreach($data as $item) {
  $item = explode(';',$item);
  echo $item[0].' '.$item[3];
}

foreach($data as $d) 
{
  $arr_data = explode(';',$d);
  $first_data = $arr_data[0];
  $last_data =  $arr_data[3];
}

Change here

print "<pre>";
print_r($data[0]);
print "</pre>"

as

print "<pre>";
$spl = split(';', $data[0]);
echo $spl[0] . $spl[3];
print "<pre>";
