[Zope] string splitting

[Nick Garcia]

If you were doing it in DTML, then you'd do this:

<!--#var "_.string.split(thestring, '&')[0]"-->
To get the first part, and:
<!--#var "_.string.split(thestring, '&')[1]"-->
To get the second part.

Although, I suppose you could do:
<!--#call "REQUEST.set(myVar, _.string.split(thestring, '&')"-->

And then use:
<!--#var "myVar[0]"-->
and
<!--#var "myVar[1]"-->
but I haven't tried that yet.

You'll have to pardon my use of the old syntax, but I haven't had time to
move over to the new one yet.
