Remove characters from string

Jon · Apr 27, 2005

Hello all,

Would anyone please be able to help?

I would like to remove all characters after and including the @ from a
string, for example the string (e-mail address removed) would become
Joe Bloggs.

Thanks You all,

Jon

"(e-mail address removed)".replace(/@.*/, '')

myString = myString.replace(/@.*/, "");

Or, compatible with very old script engines

var atpos = myString.indexOf("@");
if (atpos > -1) {
myString = myString.substring(0, atpos);
}

for example the string (e-mail address removed) would become
Joe Bloggs.

Did you mean "joe.Bloggs"?

ciao, dhgm

S = "(e-mail address removed)"
S = S.split('@')[0]

is another way.

S = "(e-mail address removed)"
T = S.split('@') // T[0] & T[1] may be useful
