Creating array in jQuery and adding/removing elements

Question

I have an input field:

<input type="text" value="hello1,hello2" id="list">

I want to grab this value and turn it into an array (guessing .split() is the appropriate way):

var list = $('#list').val().split(",");

Now. How do I add add and element to this array? And how do I unset an array element? For example:

if (array_element == 'hello1') {
   // unset array_element
}

Add Concatenate the value. Remove Get value, split, filter, join, set value. — Tushar

Add an item:

list.push('hello3');

Remove an item:

list.splice( $.inArray('hello1',list) ,1 );
