using replace and trim together

[Joey]

This should not be this tough but I may be thinking too hard about it.

Here's what I have:

thenames="charles,sam,chris,"

How do I do remove the last comma? I tried using trim and replace
together but couldn't get it.

Thanks!

if right(thenames, 1) = "," then
thenames = left(thenames, len(thenames)-1)
end if

ASP jscript:

thenames = thenames.replace(/,$/,'')
