There may be a more elegant way, but until it comes along...
you can .split() the string on the _ character.
myArray = myString.split('_')
which in your case would create an array with element 'thisisadiv' at
position 0, and '1' at position 1.
you could then reference it via myArray[1]

I have failed as much as I have succeeded. But I love my life. I love my
