Undecoded Message
I was trying to use a condensed array in AE (on a text layer's source text), but it kept throwing an error. Does anyone know why this was throwing an error?

var temp = new Array("test,"test2");
outputString = temp[0]
ERROR

or using a literal array
var temp = ["test","test2"]
outputString=temp[0]
ERROR

Instead I had to break it out into separate arguments like this. Why does it need that?
var temp = new Array()
temp[0] = "test";
temp[1] = "test2";

outputString = test[0]
