Rating:
The syntax of using the search() method is as follows:
strobj.search(regularexpression)
The following example will demonstrate the use of the match() method:
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function searchme()
{
var str="This is a good expression"
var regexp=/\bexpr/
var str1=str.search(regexp)
document.write(str1)
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Match" onclick="matchme()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
The output of the above code is 15.
