Extendscript .split expression error
Hi,
I want to get the second array of the split but Im getting a error in extendscript when the second array doesn’t exist. Is there a solution to make it work in both expression engine?
text.sourceText.split(",")[1] -

It depends on what you want to happen when there’s no comma, but this is one way:
split = text.sourceText.split(",");
split.length > 1 ? split[1] : "" -
I want to return nothing and put it inside an array with other characters. So something like this?
split = text.sourceText.split(",");
splitOne = split.length > 1 ? split[1] : "";
splitTwo= split.length > 1 ? split[2] : "";
splitThree= split.length > 1 ? split[3] : "";
wordDictionary = [":", ".",splitOne ,splitTwo,splitThree] -
as a hack you could maybe do this ?
split = (text.sourceText.value+”,,,”).split(“,”).slice(0,3);
there will always be at least 3 (possibly empty) items in the array this way
