How to get each value from a comma separated string in JavaScript?

Lets consider I have a string called 

string s = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png";

So from this I need to get each one like, I can assign each extension to one var variable such as 

var a = jpeg
var b = jpg
var c = gif
var d = png

Same way if I will add more extensions to the string then accordingly I will have to get all with same var variable.

If you have a comma delimited string, which was the question, there's no need to split.

In this case response is a json object returned from a service via an ajax call. The json contains an element called tags which is itself a collection object which I put in a javaScript array.

var metaTags = new Array();
metaTags = response.Tags;

for (var tag in metaTags) {
  $("#divTagContainer").append("<div class='divTagItem'>" + metaTags[tag] + "</div>");
};

All you have to do is to use the javascript split method-

$(function(){
    var s = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png";
    var match = s.split(', ')
    console.log(match)
    for (var a in match)
    {
        var variable = match[a]
        console.log(variable)
    }
})
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

You can get an array with the split method:

"jpeg, jpg, gif, png".split(', ');

You can then loop over it to get the individual values.

Assigning the values in it to individual variables is, frankly, insane, but you could play with eval to achieve that.

lets consider you have a string like 

**var** = s = "jpeg, jpg, gif, png";

split it with ',' and you have an array

var strArray = s.split(',')​

Use split:

var list = s.split(', ');

just do:

var arr = s.split(", ");

then you have an array of the values, iterate over that and do what ever
