using metacharacter in if statment

do somthing

}



thanks

hi

Code:

---

<script type=text/javascript>

var dd = ["a.mp3","b.wav","c.flv","d.wma",.....];

for (i=0;i<4;i++) {
if (dd[i] == *.wma) {

document.write(" WMA ");
}
}
</script>

---

*.wma
or
$wma >>>> any element end with wma

its possible to do this in javascript?

<script type=text/javascript>

var dd = ["a.mp3","b.wav","c.flv","d.wma"];

for (i=0;i<4;i++) {
var ext=dd[i].substring(dd[i].lastIndexOf('.')+1,dd[i].length);
if (ext == 'wma') {
document.write(" WMA ");
}
}
</script>

Or with a regular expression

Code:

---

if (/\.HTML$/.test(file)) {
  // do something if file end by .HTML
}

---

Slashes are the regular expression delimiters. The point must be escaped and the dollar match at the end of the string.
