general about .split
<p>Markup::</p>

<pre><code>&lt;td class="info2 gensmall"&gt;
&lt;span class="new1"&gt;In total there is &lt;strong&gt;1&lt;/strong&gt; user online :: 1 Registered, 0 Hidden and 0 Guests &lt;/span&gt;
 &lt;span class="new2"&gt;We have &lt;strong&gt;4&lt;/strong&gt; registered users&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span class="new3"&gt;The newest registered user is &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="/u5"&gt;cldtomhil&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span class="new4"&gt;Our users have posted a total of &lt;strong&gt;12&lt;/strong&gt; messages&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/td&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>Ok guys trying to learn the jQuery <code>.split</code> </p>

<pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){
    var a = $('td .info2 .new1');
    var b = $('td .info2 .new2');
    var c = $('td .info2 .new3');
    var d = $('td .info2 .new4');
    var w = a.split("&lt;strong&gt;");
    var x = b.split("&lt;strong&gt;");
     var y = c.split("&lt;strong&gt;");
     var z = d.split("&lt;strong&gt;");
$('.new1').html('&lt;span&gt;"w"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Users Online');
$('.new2').html('&lt;span&gt;"x"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Total Users');
$('.new3').html('&lt;span&gt;"y"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Newest Member');
$('.new4').html('&lt;span&gt;"z"&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;Total Messages')
    });
</code></pre>

<p>Ok I know I am doing this wrong just by looking at it. Though I just can't figure out how to use the split feature, I am trying to gain the information inside the <code>&lt;strong&gt;</code> tags. Then once I have it I want to change the innerHTML basically with the new data like I posted with the <code>.html</code></p>

<p>Yes I know it's a lot of variables but hey what can you do, I'm not a very good coder yet, and still learning some things so.</p>
