How to break a string after a specific character in jquery

Question

Here is my code:

var string1= "Hello how are =you"; 

I want a line after "=", that is, "you" only from this entire line. Suppose a string will always have a single "=" character, and I want the entire string after that character in a new variable in jquery.

Please help me.

Answer 1

Demo script

Use this: jQuery split () ,

 var string1= "Hello how are =you"; string1 = string1.split('=')[1]; 

Split gives you two outputs:

• [0] = "Hello, how to do this"

• [1] = "you"

Answer 2

use the Split method to split a string into an array

demonstration

 var string1= "Hello how are =you"; alert(string1.split("=")[1]); 

Answer 3

Try using String.prototype.substring() in this context,

 var string1= "Hello how are =you"; var result = string1.substring(string1.indexOf('=') + 1);
