How to Split strings in Mozilla Jetpack

Question

Well , i have tried Split("?") and Split('?')

both give the same error ( link.split is not a function) , so i assume that there is a way to be able to split in jetpack but not using this Split ? maybe jQuery ? hope someone can help in this issue.

Got it , it is a href Split , so yeah as jordan said , it was not a string . so i used x.href.split("?") worked like a charm

Thanks

Answer 1

Jetpack just uses JavaScript so this should work:

var str = "My.string";
str.split("."); // => [ "My", "string" ]

If it tells you "split is not a function" then it probably means your variable doesn't hold a string like you think it does.

Answer 2

If the object is not already a string, convert it first.

myObject.toString().split("?");
