split Method (Windows Scripting - JScript)

  • Article

 

Returns the array of strings that results when a string is separated into substrings.

Syntax

stringObj.split([separator[, limit]])

Arguments

  • stringObj
    Required. The String object or literal to be split. This object is not modified by the split method.

  • separator
    Optional. A string or an instance of a Regular Expression object identifying one or more characters to use in separating the string. If omitted, a single-element array containing the entire string is returned.

  • limit
    Optional. A value used to limit the number of elements returned in the array.

Remarks

The result of the split method is an array of strings split at each point where separator occurs in stringObj. The separator is not returned as part of any array element.

The following example illustrates the use of the split method.

function SplitDemo(){
   var s = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
   // Split at each space character.
   var ss = s.split(" ");
   return(ss);
}
