Hi,

There is no need to use the jQuery for getting the smaller from a big string.

JavaScript provides convenient function for this purpose.

Here is the description of the substring function of JavaScript:

string.substring(start, to);

from: value is required and it specifies the index from where program will start the extraction.

to: this is option value. If no value is specified all the string will extracted till end of the string.

Here is the complete example html and javascript code:

<html>
 <head>
  <title>JQuery Substring</title>
  <script lanuage="JavaScript">
    function test(){
        var technologyName = "Language JavaScript";
        alert("Technology:" + technologyName);
        technologyName = technologyName.substring(9);
        alert("Technology:" + technologyName);
    }
  </script>
 </head>

 <body>
  <a href="javascript:test()">Substring</a>
 </body>
</html>

Thanks
