var splitString = yourstring.split(',');

See split

var str = "test,test1,test2";
var arrStr = str.split(',');
var arrLength = arrStr.length; //returns 3

Use split to split your string:

"foo,bar,baz".split(",")  // returns ["foo","bar","baz"]

var expression = "h,e,l,l,o";

var tokens = expression.split("\,");

alert(tokens[0]);// will return h

why are you splitting on \,? Is that just a typo?
