Is there a 'right' function in javascript

[trojan800]

Can I manipulate a string in javascript with any similar functions to say right, left, mid etc. Particularly how would I isolate a word in a long string if I knew where the word started but not where it ended and wanted to search forward for the next space. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

[greelmo]

stringName.substring(where it starts, where it ends);
if you know the word, you can figure out where it ends

String.prototype.left = function(){
return this.substring(0,arguments[0])
}
String.prototype.right = function(){
return this.substring(this.length-arguments[0])
}
var str="abcdef
alert(str.left(3))
alert(str.right(3))
