1) create a hidden control in your page

ASP.NET

<asp:HiddenField ID="hdnfld_availableTags" runat="server" />

in the code behind assign values to it as

C#

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           if (!Page.IsPostBack)
           {
               hdnfld_availableTags.Value = "'ActionScript','AppleScript','Asp','BASIC','C','C++','Clojure','COBOL'";
           }
       }

and in javascript

XML

<script type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {
            var item = $('#hdnfld_availableTags').val();
            var ar = item.split(',');

            alert(ar);
        });
    </script>
