JavaScript: String Tokenization and Substring (See related posts)

// Tokenize a comma-separated string
// then recreate the comma-separated list

  var currentTagTokens = currentTags.split( "," );
  var existingTags = "";

  for ( var i = 0; i < currentTagTokens.length; i++ )
  {
    existingTags = existingTags + currentTagTokens[ i ] + ", ";
  }

  // Remove the trailing ", " from existingTags
  existingTags = existingTags.substring( 0, existingTags.length - 3 );

As far as I know, Javascript Arrays have a join method...
alert( "one,two,three,four,five".split(",").join(", ") );

Thanks, Venkman. That would help me eliminate the for loop.
