Well, to take the easier part first, the printing of each value of an array:

Help with Code Tags

(Toggle Plain Text)

<?php
foreach($array as $key => $val){
echo "$key = $val <br />";
}

Now to separate email addresses, that depends on how the string with the email addresses is formatted. if it's just separated with comma's, I would use explode:

Help with Code Tags

(Toggle Plain Text)

$array = explode(',', $emailString);

But if the separator between the email addresses isn't constant, you should indeed go with regex (with the split function).

Off course there are lots of ways of doing it. I think you could to do it with preg_match_all();

You should post an example of the string you want splitted looks like.
