chunk_split -- Split a string into smaller chunksDescriptionstring chunk_split ( string body [, int chunklen [, string end]] )

Can be used to split a string into smaller chunks which is useful for
e.g. converting base64_encode() output to match RFC
2045 semantics. It inserts end (defaults to
"\r\n") every chunklen characters (defaults to
76). It returns the new string leaving the original string untouched.

Example 1. chunk_split() example

PHP:
  1. // format $data using RFC 2045 semantics
  2. $new_string = chunk_split(base64_encode($data));

See also str_split(),
explode(), split(),
wordwrap() and
RFC 2045.
