Hi,
There is no need to use the jQuery for getting the smaller from a big string.
JavaScript provides convenient function for this purpose.
Here is the description of the substring function of JavaScript:
string.substring(start, to);
from: value is required and it specifies the index from where program will start the extraction.
to: this is option value. If no value is specified all the string will extracted till end of the string.
Here is the complete example html and javascript code:
<html>
<head>
<title>JQuery Substring</title>
<script lanuage="JavaScript">
function test(){
var technologyName = "Language JavaScript";
alert("Technology:" + technologyName);
technologyName = technologyName.substring(9);
alert("Technology:" + technologyName);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="javascript:test()">Substring</a>
</body>
</html>
Thanks
