If I perform an 
explode(",",$str);
on
$str = "hi there this is a test";

Php gets "stuck" and can eventually bing the memroy of the server down.

I can't reproduce this with latest CVS on Linux using
the following test script:

<?php

$str = "this test string doesnt include the separator char";
$arr = explode(";", $str);

?>

Maybe is a bug related to WIN NT ?
Do you need more info about the settings of my phpinfo() ?

I can't reproduce this on Windows either. Can you please try and run this from command line and see if it still creates problems? Without any prepends or anything

Can't reproduce this with PHP 4.0.6-dev either, on Win2K. Tested it both from the command-line with 'php -q test.php', as via Apache.

You are right this is no bug on explode().

The problem is if you explode into a database (which PHP tends to get stuck on imploding bad queries).
Thanks for your time on this report, anyway.
