Question

HI All,

In my js file i am getting an array of records (negetive values ) like this

deletedDetailIds = $.map(eformDetailIds, function(e) { return e < 0 ? e : null; }); 

For example the deletedDetailIds = -1234,-1235,-1256 like this.

Now i have to create an array and add these values with out negetive symbols. like

newArray = 1234,1235,1256.

Please help me in this

The correct way would be to use Math.abs:

$.map(eformDetailIds, function(e) { 
    return e < 0 ? Math.abs(e) : null; 
});

You could also multiply with -1.

You are dealing with numbers. Only the string representation contains a - to indicate the negative value, so you cannot really remove the first character here.
