I have a very long string that I want to split into 2 pieces.
I ws hoping somebody could help me split the string into 2 separate strings.
I need the first string to be 400 characters long and then the rest in the second string.

This is another approach if you want to break a string into n number of equal parts
<?php
$string = "This-is-a-long-string-that-has-some-random-text-with-hyphens!";
$string_length = strlen($string);
switch ($string_length) {
case ($string_length > 0 && $string_length < 21):
$parts = ceil($string_length / 2); // Break string into 2 parts
$str_chunks = chunk_split($string, $parts);
break;
default:
$parts = ceil($string_length / 3); // Break string into 3 parts
$str_chunks = chunk_split($string, $parts);
break;
}
$string_array = array_filter(explode(PHP_EOL, $str_chunks));
?>
