Question

I am pulling in city and state names like this – Dallas,TX. I need to add a space after the comma. Is there a way to find the comma and add in the space after?

Answer 1

You can use String.replace to replace any occurrences of “,” with “, “, for example:

var example:String = "Dallas,TX";
example.replace(",", ", ");
// example now reads "Dallas, TX"

You can look here for more information on String and its member functions:
