How to get each value from a comma separated string in javascript?

lets consider I have a string called

string s = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png";

So from this I need to get each one like, I can assign each extension to one var variable such as

var a = jpeg
var b = jpg
var c = gif
var d = png

Same way if I will add more extensions to the string then accordingly I will have to get all with same var variable.

Please reply me with your valuable answer.

Thanks.

string.split(separator, limit)

Try this,

s= s.split(",");

for (var k = 0; k < s.length; k++) {

var a=s[k];
var b=s[k];

var c=s[k];

var d=s[k];
}

Thanks for your response. But actually I want to achieve a target as explained below.

function onUploadClick1(){
var eachFileSize = '<%=EachFileSize %>';
if (fileUpload.value.length > 0) {
var ext = getExt(filename);
var s = '<%=AllowedExtensions %>';
var match = s.split(', ')
for (var ext in match){
onUploadClick();
}
}
}

Here I am using this function. So what I need is if the selected files extension will match with supplied extensions then it will allow or else dont allow.

Hi,

Try this-

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var globalFileTypeId = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png".split(',');
alert("First value: "+globalFileTypeId[0]+"\n"
+"Second value: "+globalFileTypeId[1]+"\n"
+"Third value: "+globalFileTypeId[2]+"\n"
+"Fourth value: "+globalFileTypeId[3]+"\n")
</script>
 </head>
<body>

</body>
</html>

Why don't you maintain an array with extentions? That's the appropriate way.

string s = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png";
var extentions[] = s.split(',');

Now you can access the array by index.

e.g:- extentions[0];

Try this,

s= s.split(",");


for (var k = 0; k < s.length; k++) {

                              var a=s[k];
                              var b=s[k];

var c=s[k];

             var d=s[k];
                                    }

That for loop is wrong.
