hi,
first of all thanks for taking your time!
I'm a junior Dev, working with PHP + mysql.
My issue:
I'm saving data from a form to my database. From this form, there's only need to save the contacts: Name, phone number, address. But, it would be nice to have a small reference to the user answers.
Let's say for each question we've got a value betwee 1 and 4. Since there's no need to create a table just for it, because what's needed is just the personal contacts. I'm thinking of recording each question/answer, as a letter and its correspondent value.
Example (A2, B1, C5, D3, etc).
My question is:
Is there a format I could afterwards, handle easily ? Convert to array (string to array) in case the client change ideas, and ask this data, placed in table columns ? Just to prevent this situation!
Example,
From (A2, B1, C5 ) to array( "A" = "1", "B" = "1", "C" = "5" )
For now I guess, Regex is the answer, but it's allways hard to figure it out and I'm allways getting in troubles =)
Thanks!
