You can do this with strpos to get the position of the first comma, and substr to get the value prior to it:

<?php

    $val='123132,32132,123132321321,3';
    $a=substr($val,0,strpos($val,','));

    echo $a;

?>

Output:

123132

There are a number of ways to accomplish this:

substr($A,0,strpos($A,","))

or

current(explode(",", $A))

will both return the value 123132

You can do

$A='123132,32132,123132321321,3';
$t=explode(',',$A);
$result = $t[0];
