String Function Question

[SeattleDan]

I have an array, $names, that looks like this:

$names = array("Joe", "Jill", "Bill);

I've used the following code to list the contents of the above array:

<?
if (isset($names)){
echo ("Here's your list of names: ");
foreach ($names as $x)
echo "($x, ");
}
?>

And here's what I get:

Joe, Jill, Bill,

What I need is the above string without the last comma. Is there a string function that will strip the last comma from the string? Or is there a way to modify the above code to accomplish this?

Your thoughts will be appreciated.

here ya go. implode() the array:

echo implode(', ', $names);
