toString method for arrays

The toString method fuses the elements of an array into one character string, with a comma delimiter to separate the former elements.

Using the join method without specifying a delimiter will give you the same result.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[

myArray = new Array("a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f");

for (i=0; i<myArray.length; i++)
{
  document.write("myArray[", i, "] : ", myArray[i], "<br>");
}

document.write("<br>myArray.toString() : ", myArray.toString(), "<br>");

document.write("<br>myArray.join() : ", myArray.join(), "<br>");

//]]>
</script>

Output:
