Spliting string value into list box

[ejg]

Hi All,

I am trying to use the split function to split a string into an array. I then need the array to appear in a list box.

I have the user type a value (\n delimited), I have the split function split the string into an array. I then want the contents of this array to be displayed in a listbox.

The way that I am trying to split the string is as follows;

<form name=&quot;eventform&quot;><textarea rows=&quot;2&quot; name=&quot;S1&quot; cols=&quot;20&quot;></textarea>
<script>
var pubishArray = document.eventform.S1.value.split('\n')
</script>

any help or suggestions would be great!

IF there is a Split function in JavaScript, wouldn't it be
var pubishArray = Split(document.eventform.S1.value,'\n')
in VBScript it would be
pubishArray = Split(document.eventform.S1.value,Chr(13) & chr(10))

The way you have it written
pubishArray = document.eventform.S1.value.split
says that Split is a method of value. I've never seen that in DHTML.
