using "split" to build multi-dimensional arrays ?

no, set you itemdelimiter before you split and you will see why.
The comma is the default itemdelimiter.

Split uses the itemdelimiter to split your array into "parseable" items.
so it you have commas in your arrays, it can lead to confusions somewhere...
