What is the best way to parse keys and their values from a http
repsonse (byte array?) I'd like to keep it as generic as possible as I
have many repsonses to parse.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks Kevin,

dont worry, I've just written a class to do it. I had to do a very
through job, since it is going to be used in several apps. The reason
why I asked was I was wondering if Microsoft had supplied a class that
did it for us.

What I wanted was to be able to separate values for their corresponding
key from a string e.g.

"sidjsidjsidjis djsiasdjakjaksj ?key1=value1&ke y2=value2&key3= value3"

String.Split.

Design opinions/urls/snippets requested; parsing simplistic config files

I've been doing some reading/research on parsing simple configuration files through C, and have heard various opinions on the matter.
