Description:
------------
It would be useful if you were able to pass an Array as Delimiter to explode.
The "Test Script" contains an Example.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

  var_dump(explode(array(',', '.', '!', ' '), 'Hello, World! This is a Test!'));
  /*

    Should output something like:
      array(8) {
        [0]=>
        string(5) "Hello"
        [1]=>
        string(0) ""
        [2]=>
        string(5) "World"
        [3]=>
        string(0) ""
        [4]=>
        string(4) "This"
        [5]=>
        string(2) "is"
        [6]=>
        string(1) "a"
        [7]=>
        string(4) "Test"
      }

  */

?>

Expected result:
----------------
Included in the Test Script

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: explode() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in php shell code 
on line 1
NULL

use preg_split instead ;)

var_dump(preg_split('/[, !\.]/', 'Hello, World! This is a Test!'));
