You can use the PHP explode function in order to separate your input by given delimiter. In your case it would be something like this:

$array = explode(',', $_POST['implo']);

After that you can do a foreach with the array and run INSERT queries in your database.

Here's also a reference for the explode function.

Try this:

HTML part:

<form action="index.php" method="post">
 <td>checking array implode</td>
  <td><input name="implo[]" type="text"  /></td>
</form>

PHP part:

$implo = explode(',', $_POST['implo']);

$implo variable will be something like this: "first_value,second_value,third_value..."
