Description

```
On line 79 and 844, the code makes references to the split() function,
which is deprecated in PHP 5.3.0 and will be removed in PHP 6.0. The code
should be modified to use explode() (which is reverse compatible with older
versions of PHP).
```

Research direction

Search the repository for the references to split() at lines 79 and 844, then inspect their delimiters and surrounding callers. Replace those deprecated calls with explode() while preserving behavior, and run the project's available tests or a basic PHP syntax check to confirm the reader still works.
