Turn CSS listing into JavaScript Array?

[George Hester]

I have this in a style sheet:

div.track { font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; }

In a JavaScript function I can pull out Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif putting it
into a JavaScript variable fontfamily.

But what I would prefer is an array fontfamily[] where each font-family is an element
of the array.

I tried

var fontfamily = new Array(getComput edStyleForEleme nt(document.get ElementById('di vTrack'),'fontF amily'));

but no dice. This is a one element Array with

fontfamily[0] = Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif

What I was hoping for was:

fontfamily[0] = Verdana
fontfamily[1] = Arial
fontfamily[2] = Helvetica
fontfamily[3] = sans-serif

Any neat ideas how I might do this?
Thanks.

If you have a string you can split it into an array e.g.

var fonts = 'Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif';
var fontsArray = fonts.split(/, /g);
