Oops:

At 01:37 AM 5/23/2005, I wrote:

This example should have been:

    0    id="wrapper">
    1   ><p>Here's some content</p></div>
    2   >Here's some other content</div></div><ul>
    ...

since whatever the array is split with, in this case the string "<div", 
will not show up in the array elements.
