Javascript String - split() Method

4/6/14

Description:

This method splits a String object into an array of strings by separating the string into substrings.

Syntax:

string.split([separator][, limit]);
Here is the detail of parameters:
  • separator : Specifies the character to use for separating the string. If separator is omitted, the array returned contains one element consisting of the entire string.
  • limit : Integer specifying a limit on the number of splits to be found.

Return Value:

  • The split method returns the new array. Also, when the string is empty, split returns an array containing one empty string, rather than an empty array.

Example:

<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScript String split() Method</title>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">

var str = "Apples are round, and apples are juicy.";

var splitted = str.split(" ", 3);

document.write( splitted );

</script>
</body>
</html>
This will produce following result:
Apples,are,round,
