Strings Javacript

[Shreya Menon]

Hey all,
I have a string var which is
var gcc = "GCCOUNT count="1";
I want to extract the 1 from this. I tried in with Javascript, but no hope.
Can anyone please help me.
Thanks,
Maya

Can you give a few more details? Are you just trying to get whatever is to the right of the equals sign? If so, you could do something like:

    var gccValue = gcc.subString(gcc.indexOf("= "))

This will find the index of the "= " in the string you provided and use that as a starting point to grab a substring. Since I gave no other parameter, it'll just grab the rest of the string from that point.

Hi Bodie,
Thanks for the response.
Actually this is the string, which is an XML string from whivh I have to extract the value of the GCCOUNT tag.
var test = ' <?xml version="1.0"?> <ARCXML version="1.0"> <RESPONSE> <GEOCODE>
<FEATURE featureid="1">
<FIELD type="4" name="SCORE" size="5" precision="0"> <FIELDVALUE valuestring="100" /> </FIELD> <FIELD type="12" name="ADDRESSFOUND" size="17" precision="0"> <FIELDVALUE valuestring="2940N LINCOLN AVE" /> </FIELD> <FIELD type="-98" name="SHAPEFIELD"> <FIELDVALUE> <POINT x="1166877.68985714" y="1919619.76558407" /> </FIELDVALUE> </FIELD> </FEATURE> <GCCOUNT count="1" /> </GEOCODE> </RESPONSE> </ARCXML>';
From this I have to extract the value of the Geocode tag.
I have to do it using Javascript.
Thanks,
Maya

hi ,
You can cut the strings in to two part . One before the GCCOUNT and one after that. ( Use split fn of String ) . Tehn use indexOF and substrign to get the result.
