Javascript function split not working

When I try to use the split funtion in javascript in a webscript on a string it always returns 0 elements.

e.g.

var test = "test.string.test";
var testArray= test.split(".");

testArray is alway empty.

I'm guessing this has to do with the javascript implementation used by the webscripts.

It's easy enough to work around, but thought I should mention it.

Not seeing that at all…

% var test = "test.string.test"; var testArray= test.split(".");
% testArray.length

Make sure you've got a JavaScript string and not a Java string when trying to call split(). You can force a JavaScript string using String().

Thanks,
