Question

In my javascript:

console.log($.isArray(thisValue)); //true
strDisplay = thisValue.split(" "); //TypeError: thisValue.split is not a function

‘thisValue’ is a property of an object I’m getting from a .json file. In certain cases, my object’s properties could be an array. I look at the raw .json file, and it seems to be properly formatted as an array.

Any ideas on what could be going on here?

Thanks.

Answer 1

.split() is a method to be used on Strings, not Arrays.

Reference and examples

It appears that you want Array.join, which glues together an Array into a String.
