Answer 3

+1 A:

yourString.substring(0, yourString.indexOf(';'))

Careful. What if `yourString.indexOf(';')` returns `-1`?

I believe in the infallibility of the surrounding program as provided by the OP. He says there's a semicolon, of course I believe him :)

This option may be faster than regexp. Worth to try.
