Split numbers from string

[scialom]

Hello,

I have this string:
field = "due_date31";

is there a way to split it into two vars so it will be like:
var 1 = "due_date";
var 2 = "31";

many thanks!

You may use Regular Expressions:

<script type="text/javascript">
var field = "due_date31";
var number=field.match(/\d/g).join('');
var nonnumber=field.match(/[^\d]/g).join('');
</script>

And a note:

var 1 = "due_date";
var 2 = "31";

Take care. Variables and function names can not start with a number. The first character should be either a letter or an underscore.
