split why does it hate me?

[lordhuh]

This is the entire chuck of my code. (well really there was alot more but after alot of debuging i boiled it down to this).

<%
const str1=&quot;hello every body how are you today&quot;
const str2=&quot; &quot;
dim str3
str3=split(str1,str2)
response.write str3
%>

I always get this error message

Error Type:
Response object, ASP 0106 (0x80020005)
An unhandled data type was encountered.
/test.asp


also i have tryed this

<%
const str1=&quot;hello every body how are you today&quot;
const str2=&quot; &quot;
dim str3()
str3=split(str1,str2)
response.write str3
%>

gets me

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A000D)
Type mismatch
/test.asp, line 5

<%
const str1=&quot;hello every body how are you today&quot;
const str2=&quot; &quot;
dim str3()
str3()=split(str1,str2)
response.write str3
%>

gets me

Error Type:
Microsoft VBScript runtime (0x800A0009)
Subscript out of range
/test.asp, line 5

Please Im about to give up on asp all together. What is the correct way to do a split Karl Pietri

lordhuh,
sinse function split()returns an array of strings, you cannot just use [red]response.write str3[/red].
You have to iterrate through the items in array:


<%
dim str1,str3,i
str1=&quot;hello every body how are you today&quot;
str3=split(str1,&quot; &quot
for i = 0 to ubound(str3)
response.write str3(i)& &quot;<br>&quot;
next
%>
