Separating 2 variables loaded from PHP/TXT file

1

I’m able to read a .txt file on my server that contains two separate umbers on two separate lines. The .txt file looks like this:


3
5

I’m trying to get those two numbers into my as3 script as separate variables, in this case within an array. Here’s my loader:


    function loadComplete(e:Event):void 
            {    
                        outputTxt.text = e.target.data;                
                        var stats:Array = outputTxt.text.split("
");
                        trace(String(stats[0]));
            }

But for some reason, both variables load into the first part of the array (stats[0]) and nothing loads into stats[1]. The textfield failed to split into two numbers within the array. Any suggestions?
