$string = 'tokenNo=12345&securityCode=111&name=Sam';
parse_str($string);
echo $tokenNo;
echo $securityCode;
echo $name;

Or you can store the entire variables in one array:

$string = 'tokenNo=12345&securityCode=111&name=Sam';
parse_str($string, $array);
print_r($array);

Use

parse_str()

$string = 'tokenNo=12345&securityCode=111&name=Sam';
parse_str($string);
echo $name."<br>";
echo $tokenNo."<br>";
echo $securityCode.;
