JavaScript: String Operators
String Concatenation
When working with JavaScript strings sometimes you need to join two or more strings together into a single string. Joining multiple strings together is known as concatenation.
The concatenation operator
The concatenation operator (+) concatenates two or more string values together and return another string which is the union of the two operand strings.
The shorthand assignment operator += can also be used to concatenate strings.
Example:
The following web document demonstrates the use of concatenation operator (+) and shorthand assignment operator +=.
HTML Code
<!doctype html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>JavaScript string operator example.</title>
<meta name="description" content="This document contains an example of JavaScript string operator"/>
</head>
<body>
<script src="javascript-string-operator-example1.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
JS Code
var newParagraph = document.createElement("p");
var newText = document.createTextNode("'google' + '.' + ' com=" + 'google' + '.' + ' com');
newParagraph.appendChild(newText);
document.body.appendChild(newParagraph);
var string1= 'google';
var newParagraph1 = document.createElement("p");
var newText1 = document.createTextNode('string1='+string1);
newParagraph1.appendChild(newText1);
document.body.appendChild(newParagraph1);
string1 +='.com';
var newParagraph1 = document.createElement("p");
var newText1 = document.createTextNode('string1='+string1);
newParagraph1.appendChild(newText1);
document.body.appendChild(newParagraph1);

JavaScript: Tips of the Day
How to insert an item into an array at a specific index (JavaScript)?
What you want is the splice function on the native array object.
arr.splice(index, 0, item); will insert item into arr at the specified index (deleting 0 items first, that is, it's just an insert). In this example we will create an array and add an element to it into index 2:
var arr = []; arr[0] = "Jani"; arr[1] = "Hege"; arr[2] = "Stale"; arr[3] = "Kai Jim"; arr[4] = "Borge"; console.log(arr.join()); arr.splice(2, 0, "Lene"); console.log(arr.join());
