[Django]-Django templates split text on fullstop

Define a custom filter, say mysplit.

@register.filter
def mysplit(value, sep = "."):
    parts = value.split(sep)
    return (parts[0], sep.join(parts[1:]))

Then use the filter in your template:

{% with text|mysplit:"." as parts %}
    <p class="highlight">{{ parts.0 }}</p>
    <p class="normal">{{ parts.1 }}</p>
{% endwith %}

This was tested with Django 1.2.1.
