javascript split function

[-D-]

I'm using the split method to put values into an array. When I pass in the
argument to the function and then use the split method, the delimiters (commas)
are not removed. I'm not sure why? I was using an alert to show the values
before and after the split as a test and in both alerts, the commas are still
there? So, the split isn't parsing out the commas? function
CheckForm(LoopA,LoopB,LoopC) { alert(LoopA); alert(LoopB); alert(LoopC);
ArrLoopA = LoopA.split(','); ArrLoopB = LoopB.split(','); ArrLoopC =
LoopC.split(','); alert(ArrLoopA); alert(ArrLoopB); alert(ArrLoopC); Any
ideas what might I'm missing? I'm passing in the arguments to the function as
follows: onClick=' return CheckForm('<%=strAlloList%>', '<%=strStaffList%>',
'<%=strFundList%>')'> Thanks, -D-

If you use: alert(ArrLoopA[0]) instead of: alert(ArrLoopA), you will see
the array values. And of course you should use also ArrLoopA[i] with i
going from 0 to (ArrLoopA.length-1) to retrieve the individual values...
