Strip Characters from String

[vvicin01]

I need to remove some characters from a string. For example, in the filename test-e.html I want to remove the
-e.html from the string so the it reads test. How do I do this?

depends on how you determine what you want to replace/remove...

str = "test-e.html"
newStr = replace(str, "-.html", "")

If a hyphen is always going to be your delimeter, then you can use:

newString = oldString.substring(0, oldString.indexOf("-"));
