Insert a string at a specific index

Question

How can I insert a string at a specific index of another string?

 var txt1 = \"foo baz\"

Suppose I want to insert \"bar \" after the \"foo

Answer 1

If anyone is looking for a way to insert text at multiple indices in a string, try this out:

String.prototype.insertTextAtIndices = function(text) {
    return this.replace(/./g, function(character, index) {
        return text[index] ? text[index] + character : character;
    });
};

For example, you can use this to insert tags at certain offsets in a string:

var text = {
    6: "",
    11: ""
};

"Hello world!".insertTextAtIndices(text); // returns "Hello world!"
