indexof

How can I check whether the page url contains a '#' character plus some random digits e.g. www.google.de/#1234 if( window.location.href.indexOf('#') > 0 ){ alert('true'); } Does indexOf support Regular Expressions? Use String.prototype.search to get the index of a regex: 'https://example.com/#1234'.search(/#\d+$/); // 20 And RegExp.prototype.test if used for boolean checks: /#\d+$/.test('https://example.com/#1234'); // true The regex used for these examples are /#\d+$/ which will match literal # followed by 1 or more digits at the end of the string. As pointed out in the comments you might

I have a Class called AuctionItem . The AuctionItem Class has a method called getName() that returns a String . If I have an ArrayList of type AuctionItem , what is the best way to return the index of an item in the ArrayList that has a specific name? I know that there is an .indexOf() function. The parameter for this function is an object. To find the item that has a name, should I just use a for loop, and when the item is found, return the element position in the ArrayList ? Is there a better way? I think a for-loop should be a valid solution : public int getIndexByname(String pName) { for

I have an MVC3 C#.Net web app. I have the below string array. public static string[] HeaderNamesWbs = new[] { WBS_NUMBER, BOE_TITLE, SOW_DESCRIPTION, HARRIS_WIN_THEME, COST_BOGEY }; I want to find the Index of a given entry when in another loop. I thought the list would have an IndexOf. I can't find it. Any ideas? Well you can use Array.IndexOf : int index = Array.IndexOf(HeaderNamesWbs, someValue); Or just declare HeaderNamesWbs as an IList<string> instead - which can still be an array if you want: public static IList<string> HeaderNamesWbs = new[] { ... }; Note that I'd discourage you from

I have a txt file as a string, and I need to find words between two characters and Ltrim / Rtrim everything else. It may have to be conditional because the two characters may change depending on the string. Example: car= (data between here I want) ; car = (data between here I want) </value> Code: int pos = st.LastIndexOf("car=", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase); if (pos >= 0) { server = st.Substring(0, pos);.............. } This is a simple extension method I use: public static string Between(this string src, string findfrom, string findto) { int start = src.IndexOf(findfrom); int to = src

All the examples I see of using the IndexOf() method in List<T> are of basic string types. What I want to know is how to return the index of a list type that is an object, based on one of the object variables. List<Employee> employeeList = new List<Employee>(); employeeList.Add(new Employee("First","Last",45.00)); I want to find the index where employeeList.LastName == "Something" int index = employeeList.FindIndex(employee => employee.LastName.Equals(somename, StringComparison.Ordinal)); Edit: Without lambdas for C# 2.0 (the original doesn't use LINQ or any .NET 3+ features, just the lambda
