• javascript
• string
• arrays

• 2 It is not at all clear what you are asking. Try again? – danben Commented Jan 11, 2010 at 15:12
• Pasting seemingly arbitrary code is not giving detail to your question. Did you mean "ma" instead of "mon"? I was going to add a ment about englishoverflow., but that would be mean. – JoshNaro Commented Jan 11, 2010 at 15:27

You can use join to join the array items:

strMessage = myNames.join(", ")

Or even nicer:

if (myNames.length <= 1) {
    strMessage = myNames.join();
} else {
    strMessage = myNames.slice(0, -1).join(", ") + " and " + myNames[myNames.length-1];
}

You could replace the last ", " with "." by:

strMessage.replace(/, $/, ".")

Why not just not put it there in the first place?

ie, in this block:

for(i=0;i<=myNames.length-1;i++)
{
    strMessage = strMessage + myNames[i] + ", "
}

Just check whether we're at the end of the list and put a period there inb place of the ma:

for(i=0;i<=myNames.length-1;i++)
{
    strMessage = strMessage + myNames[i] 
    if(i < myNames.length)
       strMessage += ",";
    else
       strMessage = ".";  
}

Assuming you meant ma, not mon, will String.replace(",[^,]+$",".") work?

Note that you can find this same type of functionality in most languages, if you read good documentation.
