ignore designated amount of characters from a thread 1

[shopwise]

When I output a database field containing a file url such as:
images/tools.jpg, I need to always ignore the first 7 characters so that it reads: tools.jpg how would I apply this fix to the following code:

<%=images("url_img")%>

If you always know the replacement string, you can use something like <% =REPLACE(images("url_img"),"images/","") %>

Or if you know that you always want the string after the /, but might have anything in the path, you can use INSTRREV and RIGHT and LEN to extract the desired portion.

Something like this:

response.write RIGHT("images/testimage.jpg",LEN("images/testimage.jpg") - INSTRREV("images/testimage.jpg","/"))
