I'm definitely not saying this is the best way to do this, but another option at your disposal is to enable script and use the split method of JScript:


EnableScript("JScript");

 

record = "1,2,3,14|15,6,7,28|29";

 

<%

var tempArr =  AFL.Var("record").split(',');

var splitArray = new Array();

 

for ( var i = 0, len = tempArr.length; i < len; i++ )

{

    // If the array value contains a pipe then re-split into a separate array

    // otherwise add to the "regular" array

    if (tempArr[i].indexOf('|') != -1)

    {

        AFL("splitArray" + i) = tempArr[i].split('|');

    }

    else

    {

        splitArray.push(tempArr[i]);

    }

}

 

AFL("splitArray") = splitArray;

%>

 

// Plots 1,2,3,6,7

Plot(splitArray,"SplitArray", colorBlue,styleLine);

 

// Plots 14,15

Plot(VarGet("splitArray3"),"SplitArray3", colorGreen,styleLine);

 

// Plots 28,29

Plot(VarGet("splitArray6"),"SplitArray6", colorRed,styleLine);
