this might not be jquery related, but i noticed there are a lot of savvy javascript programmers in this mailing list.
i want to grab just the filename and extension from the following string: str1="F:\\Test1\\Test2\\Test3\\test.txt"; i want to grab "test.txt" i use this code: file1=(str1.split("\\"))[(str1.split("\\")).length-1]; i was wondering if there is a better way to grab that part of the string Thx for any help -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/String-Parsing-tf2376878.html#a6622443 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/
