Or to see that in the new MX'04 Lingo dot-syntax:
tStr = "F:\All Risk Training\modules\serviceInterruption\serviceInterruption.cst" _player.itemDelimiter = "\" delete tStr.item[tStr.item.count]
or, get all the items except the last from the string, instead of deleting:
tPath = tStr.item[1..(tStr.item.count - 1)]
Both versions remove the delimiter, but to me it makes more sense that you are losing the delimiter in 'mine' than the delete line.
put(tStr) -- "F:\All Risk Training\modules\serviceInterruption"
Or in JavaScript syntax:
// remember to escape all backslash characters in JS! var tStr = "F:\\All Risk Training\\modules\\serviceInterruption\\serviceInterruption.cst"; var tLast = tStr.lastIndexOf("\\"); tStr.slice(0,tLast);
trace(tStr); // F:\All Risk Training\modules\serviceInterruption
