Splitting text in a textarea form

[happyb]

Hi,

I want to take each value that is entered into a textarea seperated by a carraige return, and apply an action on each value.

For instance if I put these values in a textarea

cats
dogs
fish

I want to take cats, dogs, and fish as seperate values to display on a page like this:

Emma likes cats
John likes dogs
Jane likes fish

Using the response.write variable ofcourse.

I know how to seperate the values into <br>'s but I don't know how to access them seperatley as values.

Thanks for any help

How about this:

strTextArea = Request.Form("textareaname")

strTextArray = Split(strTextArea,vbcrlf)

strTextArray should now be an array with each new line as a separate entry.

I hope this (or something like it) works as I havent tried it myself.
