php - Tackle specific Array Key -

i not php expert or intermediate means.

i trying assign couple of html spans post title in wordpress page.php

one span added first word of title , other span should apply rest of rest of title. started code, got me half way there:

<?php     $words = explode(' ', the_title('', '',  false));     $words[0] = '<span class="bold-caption">'.$words[0].'</span>';     $title = implode(' ', $words);     echo $title; ?> 

as can see first key of array has first spam assigned.

i can't manage assign other rest of title.

how can accomplish this? thank in advance.

you're close...i'd unset() first item after adding span around it, implode() rest, , concatenate:

<?php     // split title array of words     $words = explode(' ', get_the_title());     // create new title, first word bolded     $newtitle = '<span class="bold-caption">' . $words[0] . '</span>';     // remove first word array of title words     unset($words[0]);     // concatenate remaining words (in new span) first word     $newtitle .= '<span>' . implode(' ', $words) . '</span>';      echo $newtitle; ?>
