    <p>Ok this is going to be weird but I need it</p> <p>I am trying to get the character count for a huge line of code between some particular quotes ". Basically I need to be able to get everything between the 3rd quote in the beginning and the 5th quote at the end.</p> <p>So here is an example</p> <pre><code>a:2:{s:10:"categories";s:5758:"...........";s:5:"posts";s:6:"a:0:{}";} </code></pre> <p>I need to know what the character count is of all the periods. There is actually code in place of those periods.</p> <p>Since there are 11 periods then my character count will be 11. The only consistent thing is the quotes in this so I need to base off that.</p> <p>Any help would be awesome.</p> <p>Here is my code. I am basically creating the code and adding some custom labels. I tried serializing the code first before I unserialize it but that didn't seem to work.</p> <pre><code>&lt;? $thisisit .= 'a:2:{s:10:"categories";s:5481:"a:40:{'; include('connect.php'); $sql = "SELECT * FROM wp_terms ORDER BY term_id ASC LIMIT 40"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $count = 0; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $name = $row['name']; $charactercount = strlen($name); $term_id = $row['term_id']; $thisisit .= 'i:'.$count.';a:2:{s:11:"filter_name";s:20:"add_keyword_category";s:11:"filter_args";a:7:{s:12:"filter_value";s:'.$charactercount.':"'.strtolower($name).'";s:19:"filter_search_title";s:1:"1";s:21:"filter_search_excerpt";i:0;s:21:"filter_search_content";s:1:"1";s:21:"faf_filter_categories";a:1:{i:4;s:3:"'.$term_id.'";}s:17:"filter_match_word";i:0;s:17:"filter_match_case";i:0;}}'; //echo "&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;"; $count++; } $thisisit .= '}";s:5:"posts";s:6:"a:0:{}";}'; $array = unserialize($thisisit); echo strlen($array['categories']); ?&gt; </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
