Really good way to escape all characters you want:

Hi,

I'm not sure what you are trying to do Alloy.

All that does is trace "hey;hey"

nor with twe first one come to that, perhaps you should illustrate yourself a little better with what it is you wish to achieve and add more code, how are you getting your data, would it not be easier to just import any data in an array in the first place etc etc

also, why use a delimiter that is used for more than one thing, makes things a lot harder, try using a unique delimiter
