why won't my .slice code work?

Why won't my code work. I want to get data from a text file and divide it up into the different sections for outputing. The first two parts, title and owner, work fine, but the description part just prints the owner slice. Plz Help. I'm trying to make it get the data in between the ( )

Javascript Code:

		//parse data
		response = xmlhttpget.responseText;
		//text
		strend = (response.indexOf('#') + 1);
		responseprint = response.slice(strend,response.length);
		//title
		titlestart = ((response.indexOf('(') + 1));
		titleend = (response.indexOf(')'));
		responsetitle = response.slice(titlestart,titleend);
		//owner
		strresponse = response.slice((titleend + 1),response.length);
		ownerstart = ((strresponse.indexOf('(') + 1));
		ownerend = (strresponse.indexOf(')'));
		responseowner = strresponse.slice(ownerstart,ownerend);
		//description
		strresponse = response.slice((ownerend + 1),response.length);
		descriptionstart = ((strresponse.indexOf('(') + 1));
		descriptionend = (strresponse.indexOf(')'));
		responsedescription = strresponse.slice(descriptionstart,descriptionend);
		
		//print it
		document.getElementById('name').innerHTML = responseowner;
		document.getElementById('output').innerHTML = responsedescription;

One more thing. I used AJAX to set the var 'response' = to the text from the text file.

Please tell me where I went wrong or give me a suggestion of another way to do what I want.
