jQuery is more about manipulating DOM elements. For string operations use standard [String methods](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String/#Methods_unrelated_to_HTML). — nnnnnn, Jul 11 '12 at 07:54

This is what you need :

"YourString".replace( /([a-z])([A-Z])/g, "$1 $2");

Will output :

"Your String"

There should be a `g` flag, just in case. – nhahtdh Jul 11 '12 at 07:38
