spliti() multiple "string patterns"

[Smo]

hoi.

I'm using spliti() to manipulate user input on my forums. but cause the way the strings are feeded into the script (textarea), there are both newlines and spaces in the string.

I cant figure out how to make spliti() split strings by 2 "string pattern"s. if it's even possible.

any help would be apreciated.

You can group patterns with () and create a set of patterns with [], so something like

[(patern 1)(pattern 2)]

would match either patern 1 or patern 2.
