I got an app that posts some values to a PHP file. The PHP file then makes a sqlite query to a database and returns a list of values and prints them. I can easily then with my app just use response[1] shown in the Corona SDK docs to see what the PHP prints. I can also have the app print it out in the corona terminal on multiple lines by changing to \n using response[1]:gsub(" < br > ", "\n").

But how can I manipulate the response items one by one and maybe put all of them in a new array?
