Using the idea of the dimensional splitting method, we present an iteration method for solving three-by-three block saddle point problems which appear in linear programming and finite element discretization of the Maxwell equation.We prove that the method is unconditionally convergent.Then the induced preconditioner is used to accelerate the convergence of the GMRES method for solving the system.Numerical results are presented to compare the performance of the method with some existing ones.
