JavaScript Objects: Finishing Strings - The Strike(), Sub(), Small() and Sup() Methods
(Page 5 of 6 )
The Strike(), Sub(), Small(), and Sup() Methods display a string with a striking line through it, create a subscript, create small text, and create a superscript, respectively. Here they are in code:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var wordup="Word to ya Motha!"
document.write("<p>This is an example of Small: " + wordup.small() + "</p>")
document.write("<p>This is an example of Strike: " + wordup.strike() + "</p>")
document.write("<p>This is an example of Subscript: " + wordup.sub() + "</p>")
document.write("<p>This is an example of Superscript: " + wordup.sup() + "</p>")
</script>
</body>
</html>
Here is the result:
This is an example of Small: Word to ya Motha!
This is an example of Strike: Word to ya Motha!
This is an example of Subscript: Word to ya Motha!
This is an example of Superscript: Word to ya Motha!
The SubStr() Method
The SubStr() Method extracts characters from a string, based on the range you specify.
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var str="a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z"
document.write(str.substr(0,5))
</script>
</body>
</html>
This code creates a variable that stores the alphabet. We then search that variable and and extract the characters from the 0-5 position (including spaces), which returns: a b c. If we had not included spaces in the string, it would have returned: abcde.
