Question

How can I retrieve multiple indexes from multiple instances of a string search?

var str = "food";
var index1 = str.search("o"); // 1
var index2 = str.search("o"); // ?

Thanks much,

You can use second parameter of indexOf method to achieve what you want:

var str = "food",
    index1 = str.indexOf("o"),
    index2 = str.indexOf("o", index1+1);
