jquery array to list without comma

Question

So i have a list of locations and this is being stored it the following:

var locations;

When i console.log this i get the following:

CA,CH,LA

How could i do this so i get a list of the locations and without the commas. I was thinking a foreach loop but this didnt work.

I the achieved outcome would look this this

CA
CH
LA

You can call join() on an array to create a string from each element concatenated together by any character you need.

// without commas
console.log(locations.join('')); // = "CACHLA"

// by newline (\n)
console.log(locations.join("\n")); // =
// CA
// CH
// LA

your awesome :D Iv never heard of join before, thanks

$(".postcode_check").each(function(){ if($(this).val() == pre_locations.join("\n")){ $(this).prop('checked', true); } });

locations is an Array so, explicitly call Array.join on it, providing it a new-line character \n

console.log(locations.join("\n"));

use join function to remove comma

<script>
var locations=['CA','CH','LA'];
alert(locations.join("\n"));   
</script>

Output enter image description here
