reformatting data received from api callback string - php

Question

I am receiving from a php/curl callback to an api and using jquery if statements to output certain data.
For one particular call back string the data is returned like so:
response.endpoints[0].details.cert.subject
The value of the above string is:
CN=www.thawte.com,OU=Infrastructure Operations,2.5.4.5=#130733383938323631,2.5.4.15=#131450726976617465204f7267616e697a6174696f6e,L=Mountain View,ST=California,C=US,O=Thawte, Inc.,1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2=#0c0844656c6177617265,1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3=#13025553
What I would like to be able to achieve is extract certain parts of this string instead of displaying the entire value.
The following are fixed values which will always appear but I dont want the rest of the stuff..
How can I seperately extract the following bits:
CN=value
OU=value
L=value
ST=value
C=value
For example, in my output I want to set a variable to end up with "www.thawte.com" and a seperate variable for the each of the above.

You need to use foreach inside another foreach like this:
$(function(){
var valData= "CN=www.thawte.com,OU=Infrastructure Operations,2.5.4.5=#130733383938323631,2.5.4.15=#131450726976617465204f7267616e697a6174696f6e,L=Mountain View,ST=California,C=US,O=Thawte, Inc.,1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.2=#0c0844656c6177617265,1.3.6.1.4.1.311.60.2.1.3=#13025553";
var valNew=valData.split(/,(?=\S)/);
var valArray_unprep = [];
var valArray_prep = [];
for(var i=0;i<valNew.length;i++){
var valArray_unprep = valNew[i].split('=');
for(var ii=0;ii<valArray_unprep.length;ii++)
valArray_prep[valArray_unprep[0]] = valArray_unprep[1];
}
console.log(valArray_prep);
alert(valArray_prep['CN']);
alert(valArray_prep['L']);
});
