Hi, 

Does anyone know how to separate values in a text area field, to enter
the separated values into a database? 

For instance if enter these values into a text area field

Dogs
Cats
Fish

I want to be able to take Dogs, Cats and Fish and put them in different
rows in a database. I guess the biggest problem I have is splitting the
values in the text area field that is separated by a carriage return.
Once I have that, and I know how to separate the values, then I can
easily put them into a database. 

BTW I am using CGI/PERL to enter the values into a MySql database. 

Thanks for any advice

Emma
