Question

I need a regular expression that would split strings like itemXY where X and Y are integer (item23) to be used in javascript.

I would like it to return the integers x and y.

Answer 1

Assuming that you are always going to have two digits, use this:

var item = "item24";
var result = item.match(/(\d)(\d)$/);
var digit1 = result[1];
var digit2 = result[2];
