ASP JScript - Splitting a String into URL

Trying to take a string like such

girls shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/girls.html;boys shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/boys.html;mens shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/mens.html etc...


I want to split the words before the comma (,) and use that as the anchor text. I want to then split the words between the comma (,) and the semi ( and use that as the URL. I then want to loop through the results.

I could use something like..

var str="Nice Shoes";
Response.Write(str.link("http://www.myshoestore.com"));


... and just loop through it, adding 1 to the variable name. I just cant understand how to split that string twice and place the items properly.

Any help? Big thanks!

 

Solution in VBScript, because I am rusty in JScript!

Dim strVariable
strVariable = "girls shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/girls.html;boys shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/boys.html;mens shoes,http://www.myshoestore.com/mens.html"

Dim arrURLs
Dim arrNameValue

arrURLs = Split(strVariable, ";")

For i = 0 to UBound(arrURLs)
arrNameValue = Split(arrURLs(i), ",")
Response.Write "Text:" + arrNameValue(0) + " URL: " + arrNameValue(1)
Next

 

The right answer!

 

Couldnt get it to work in JScript... so I did a VB runat server and set a session. Its a chop, but it works great.

Thanks for the help guys!
