[DaveF]

Lets say I have a string like "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"

I want to parse the string and just return the image: theimage.jpg

theimage.jpg

Const s = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
Response.Write Mid(s,InStrRev(s)+1)

I get
Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment: 'InStrRev'

Const strURL = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
Response.Write Mid(strURL,InStrRev(strURL)+1)

I got it
strURL = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
Response.Write Mid(strURL,InStrRev(strURL, "/") +1)

dim str, file
str = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
file = split(str,"/")
Response.Write(file(ubound(file)))

in jscript it is even nicer: str.split("/").pop()

===========

<script>

var response = document // for clientside jscript test

var str = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
response.write(str.split("/").pop())

</script>

Doh! Sorry. That's what I get for CBTSOMP (coding by the seat of my
pants.) Glad you got it working.

Yes, it is nice to do it all in one statement and I was trying to do that
with vbscript and couldn't figure out a way to do it. Is it possible to do
this on the server side?

Sure.

You can do all your asp script in jscript, if you like.

Alternatively you can define certain functions in jscript and the main
code in vbscript.

<script runat="server" type="text/jscript">
function getLastpart(str)
return str.split("/").pop()
</script>

<%
'' this is vbscript
Response.Write getLastpart("www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg")
%>

Not tested!

str = "www.ssss.com/images/theimage.jpg"
Response.Write( mid(str,InStrRev(str,"/")+1,Len(str)) )
