字符串截取,该怎么解决

字符串截取
bri=bridge0 if1=wan if2=lan if3=vlan mac=00:11:22:1d:2d:3d ip=192.168.100.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 arp=arp state=stop

bri=bridge1 if1=wan mac=00:01:2B:4C:6D:9F ip=192.168.1.125 netmask=255.255.255.0 state=stop

这是我保存的配置文件
但是 if打头的是多选的,个数是不固定的,最多8个,我想取出 if的值
也就是
bridge0 : wan lan vlan
bridge1 : wan
这条数据我转成数组是

PHP code

    [1] => Array

            [mac] => 00:01:2B:4C:6D:9F
            [ip] => 192.168.1.125
            [netmask] => 255.255.255.0
            [state] => stop
        )

)

请问有什么好的办法么,难道我真要
转成数组之后在根据键值判断

------解决方案--------------------

PHP code

$s = "bri=bridge0 if1=wan if2=lan if3=vlan mac=00:11:22:1d:2d:3d ip=192.168.100.1 netmask=255.255.255.0 arp=arp state=stop";
parse_str(strtr($s, ' ', '&'), $a);
print_r($a);

不就是找哪个key是if开头的吗.<br><br>
