Answer 1

You can use the existing split function

One easy and choppy exemple:

var str = '
 example ive got a string
';
var substr = str.split('
 ');
// substr[0] contains ""
// substr[1] contains "example ive got a string
"
var substr2 = substr [1].split('
');
// substr2[0] contains "example ive got a string"
// substr2[1] contains ""

The example is just to show you how the split works.
