Answer 1

You can use JavaScript's split function.

var some_text = "blah;blah;blahness";
var arr = some_text.split(';');
alert(arr[2]); //blahness

Answer 2

here is some code..

var str = '4096;jpg,bmp';
var elements = str.split(';');

alert( elements[0] ); // 4096
alert( elements[1] ); // jpg,bmp
