ASP Node Array

[artsapimp]

I know someone here (probably UncaDanno) answered this before for me but I lost it.

I know there is a way to seperate information by a common symbol but can't find an example of how to do it. I am looking for the syntax to seperate a long list at a comma.

(ie.
List - Art, Alan, Steve, John, Mary, Jennifer
I would like to create an array which is made dynamically
Name(0) = Art
Name(1) = Alan
Name(2) = Steve
Name(3) = John
Name(4) = Mary
Name(5) = Jennifer

Thanks for any help.

Not sure what language you want but here is VBScript.
I didn't test this. Just a quick post.

Dim MyString, MyArray, Msg
MyString = "Art, Alan, Steve, John, Mary, Jennifer"
MyArray = Split(MyString, ",",-1,1)

'MyArray(0) contains Art
'MyArray(1) contains Alan
etc...

Good call, beemer. That'll do it.

In the case of JScript, it'd look something like this:

var MyString;
MyString = ; //set this to the comma-delimited string of names
var MyArray = MyString.split(","); // the delimiter is all you need.


Same as with beemer's code, MyArray[0] will contain Art, MyArray[1] will
contain Alan, etc....

Thank you very much. That is exactly what I was looking for.

To step through it writing one line at a time into a select box I would do what?

PHP Code:

For x = 0 To ... What goes here? 


I know it's not PHP but it makes it look nice with this BB.

I'm sorry. I don't know why I was so confused. I'm using a For Each loop now and it works fine.

Thanks again for your help.
