METHOD:
String::slice
object.slice(startSlice[, endSlice])
This method is used
to 'slice' a section of a string and return a new string containing that
section. The section of the string that is sliced begins at the specified
index startSlice and ends at the index before
endSlice, i.e. up to but not including endSlice. A negative value can be given for endSlice, in which case the section of the string that is extracted ends at that value from the end of the original string. See the example for details.
Both examples below return the same string. The first uses a positive
value for the endSlice parameter and the second
a negative value.
Code:
myString = new String("Go to DevGuru.com")
slicer=myString.slice(1,8)
document.write(slicer)
Output:
o to De
myString = new String("Go to DevGuru.com")
slicer=myString.slice(1,-9)
document.write(slicer)
Output:
o to De |
