PHP中的Array2String & String2Array

<?/*在Array和String类型之间转换，转换为字符串的数组可以直接在URL上传递*/
// convert a multidimensional array to url save and encoded string
// usage: string Array2String( array Array )
function Array2String($Array)

    $Return='';

    }
    return urlencode(substr($Return,0,-2));

// convert a string generated with Array2String() back to the original (multidimensional) array
