/^[A-Za-z](?:,[A-Za-z])*$/.test(document.getElementById("val").value)

You should use a csv library for validating, one of the good ones out there is http://papaparse./

var  val = document.getElementById('val').value;
var results = Papa.parse(csvString, config)
var errors = results["errors"] 

I hope this will help you

function validate()
{
    val = document.getElementById('val').value;
    val = val.split(',');
    alert(val[0].length);
    for(var i=0;i<val.length;i++)
    {
        if(val[i].length != 1){
            alert("Please check value should be a seperated at every single characters");
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true; 
}

HTML:

<input type="text" id="val" value = 'A,B,C,D' ></input>
<input type="button" id="save" onclick="return validate()">
