Problems with "split/replace"

Hi!

I have a webpage (HTML) and an textbox where I write data.

The strings looks like this "0000020300024000500000000200908111024211 Hi how are you"

I just want the first 8 digits without zeros in the beginning.

example:

00030500001 => 30560
12345678000024 => 12345678

I want to strip the "00000" and the digits after 203 so the script alerts:

203
Hi
how
are
you

I want the script to look like this in the end -> "alert (number +<br /> +text1 +<br /> +text2 +<br /> +text3 +<br /> +text4);

The problem:

* I can just replace the zeros in front of 203, but not the other digits.

* I can't put the text in variabel "text1-4"

* It can't handle multilines, just the first line.

Output: "203 Hi how are you" - it only takes the first line, "Hi how are you" is still there and ignores the second line....

I want it to look like this:

"203"
"204"

The script looks like this:

function split()
{
var output = document.getElementById("textfield").value;

var result = output.replace(/^[0]+/g,"");

alert("result");


}

 

Hi,

if I understood correctly you could do it like:

var str = "0000020300024000500000000200908111024211 Hi how are you";
var num = str.substr(0,8).replace(/^[0]+/g, '');
var txt = str.replace(/[0-9]+/g, '').split(' ');
alert(num + txt.join('<br />'));

Is it what you needed?
