How to split the syllables in a word using JavaScript. Is there any API for that? Any help will be appreciated.

Now, back to being constructive, what I suggest is that you find a couple online dictionary sites and look at their APIs (I know dictionary.com has a free API) and see if you can use it to access just the word split into syllables from a lookup.
Unfortunately, from what I have read, it looks like you would really need a dictionary of words split already to check against and there aren't any standalone versions out there.
Be the first and post it somewhere! :)
