This question already has an answer here:

var string = 'a,b,c,d';
var array = [];

As we can see above I have one string values with separator*(,)*. I want to split these values and wants to push in the array. At last I want to read my array by using for loop. Please suggest.

Why would you use jQuery for this? –  fzzle Mar 28 '14 at 9:36

Use the String.split()

var array = string.split(',');

You don't need jQuery for that, you can do it with normal javascript:

var str = "a,b,c,d";
var res = str.split(","); // this returns an array

var string = 'a,b,c,d',
    strx   = string.split(',');
    array  = [];

array = array.concat(strx);
// ["a","b","c","d"]
