Looping through a Javascript Function

Question

I am having some trouble figuring this out. I would like to loop through all the months once, instead of twelve times as my code is doing so now. Can anyone help, also is there a more effective way of looping this funciton?

Thanks!

    window.onload = function() {
    getMonth();
};

 function getMonth()
{
var x="",i=0;
var month=Array();
month[0]="January";
month[1]="February";
month[2]="March";
month[3]="April";
month[4]="May";
month[5]="June";
month[6]="July";
month[7]="August";
month[8]="September";
month[9]="October";
month[10]="November";
month[11]="December";

   while (i<12)
      {
      x=x  + month + "<br/>";
       i++;
       }
    document.getElementById("months").innerHTML=x;
    }

here is a link to my jsfiddle demo http://jsfiddle.net/priswiz/LqEE6/

Here's a updated fiddle based on @Sushil answer, jsfiddle.net/knoxzin1/LqEE6/3 — Rodrigo Siqueira

Simply use Array .join method.

var x = month.join("<br />");

your code will work if you use x=x + month[i] + "<br/>";

I assume you are trying to access the array by index

while (i<12)
{
  x=x  + month[i] + "<br/>";
  i++;
}

Currently, you are printing the value of month.
