How split a string in jquery with multiple strings as separator
18,367
You can do
var tokens = x.split(/Age:|Date:/g);
This gives 3 strings :
["Name: John Doe
", " 30
Birth ", " 12/12/1981"]
If you want also to get the separators, use
var tokens = x.split(/(Age:|Date:)/g);
This gives 5 strings :
["Name: John Doe
", "Age:", " 30
Birth ", "Date:", " 12/12/1981"]
If you want to build your regexp dynamically use
var separators = ["Date:", "Age:"];
var tokens = x.split(new RegExp(separators.join('|'), 'g'));
or
var separators = ["Date:", "Age:"];
var tokens = x.split(new RegExp('('+separators.join('|')+')', 'g'));

i want to split a string in jquery or javascript with multiple separator.
for one string as separator we can have :var x = "Name: John Doe\nAge: 30\nBirth Date: 12/12/1981"; var pieces = x.split("\n"), part; for (var i = 0; i < pieces.length; i++) { bla bla bla }
But i want to split such that string(x) with :
Age:
andDate:
(mean a string array as separator)
and at last i want a sting array with these parts : "Name: John Doe\n"," 30\nBirth "," 12/12/1981"
that x string is just an example and i dont have any string like that! how can i rewrite theses codes?-
