... Or try this variation for the more jQuery obsessed...!
$.each( mystring.split(";"), function(){
var values = this.split('/');
$( '#' + values[0] ).css({ top:+values[1],
left:+values[2] });
})
... Or if you like regular expressions (and you don't mind abusing the
replace method to provide looping)...
mystring.replace(/([^\/]+)\/([^\/]+)\/([^\/]+);/g, function
($0,id,y,x){
$( '#' + id ).css({ top:y, left:x });
})
Cheers all and happy new year.
