JQuery :: Remove String Before The - Character
Jul 1, 2010I am trying to split out a string. E.G "Australia - VIC". I want to remove everything before the -. The line of code I am using to do this is: var state = optionText.replace(/.* - /,""); This works in IE7, but in all other browsers is only removing the - resulting in "Australia VIC" rather than the desired "VIC"

Feb 4, 2011I had a difficult time figuring out how to get or test the last character of a string with javascript.
I found plenty of removing the last character, but not for just checking what the last character of a string is using javascript.
// create string
var str = new String("No Periods Allowed.");
// alternatively get string from field:
// var str = document.getElementById('textbox').value;

Well, finding that easily on a search would have saved me some time.

Invalid Character In String Reference
Jul 23, 2005Is there anything 'wrong' with setting the value of a drop down menu
using the following?
document.frmStep1.drpInvaddress.value = 'A1020761603!>>R2'
This string is a key in our database that I have no control over and I
want to set the value of the menu according to this value because it
is unique. I suspect that the '' or the '>' or the '!' is making
Javascript think that this is a different type of data than string.
Is there a way to 'force' Javascript to interpret this as string?
Newline Character In String Constant
Jul 23, 2005I have a form with a textarea field. I want to validate the input from
the textarea using javascript. Suppose I want to check that the user
has not entered the string:
"Hello
World!"
To do this I am using the script:
form["text"].value == "Hello
World"
But this gives an "unterminated string constant error" because the
browser converts this to:
form["text"].value == "Hello
World"
So how do I do my check?

Store A Long String Of Text Into A Local Storage Member On A Browser - Character Data Sizes In JS
Oct 16, 2009Lets say I wanted store a long string of text into a local storage member on a browser using javascript.
window.localStorage.setItem("key",longStringText);
Now lets assume that the text itself contains characters outside of the normal ISO-8859-1 character set (like asian or russian characters). Would the individual char values be stored as one byte or two bytes?
"hello" -> 5 * 1 bytes = 5 (normal 8859 character sets)
"hello" -> 5 * 2 bytes = 10 (unicode or an extended character set size).
Is ISO-8859-1 still stored like ASCII once was as 8 bits? Or is it 16? If I was to use a 2 byte character set then would that cut the size of my allocated local storage space by half?
