(: this wont work but it reflects the intended action - setup a text for replacement:)

The text is an excerpt from web page and I want parse the content of the $aa. First I am trying to tokenize the line

to get something like this:

a
150
i
0
l
0

if I am not mistaken this should work with

fn:tokenize($aa,"[#38#60#62();=+-]")

But it does not. How can I tokenize string with special characters ("&","<", ">") ???

Thanks for suggestions
