Answer 1

In your case, x/y:

var success = myString.split('/')[1]

You split the string by /, giving you ['x', 'y']. Then, you only need to target the second element (zero-indexed of course.)

Edit: For a more general case, “notWantedwanted”:

var success = myString.replace(notWantedString, '');

Where notWantedString is equal to what you want to get rid of; in this particular case, “notWanted”.
