list ldap_explode_dn(string dnstr [, boolean noTypes[, boolean trace]] )

dnlist=ldap_explode_dn("uid=jsmith,ou=Users,dn=directory,dn=ourdomain,dn=com");
stripped=ldap_explode_dn("uid=jsmith,ou=Users,dn=directory,dn=ourdomain,dn=com");
print(dnlist);
print(stripped);
#prints the following output
#{ uid=jsmith ou=Users dn=directory dn=ourdomain dn=com}
#{jsmith, Users, directory, ourdomain, com}
