Question

webcategory.aspx?q=webcategory:Car&rows=0

From this querystring I’m extracting ‘webcategory:Car‘ (q) and inserts it into a textfield.

var qqry = $.getParamValue('q');    
if(qqry != '') {    
    $("#search-field").val(qqry)    
}

I need to know how to wipe all text before the colon(:) sign in the textfield using regex – So webcategory:Car becomes to just Car

Plz bear with me because my knowledge about regex are on an absolute minimum… :-/

Answer 1

Does it have to be with regex?

$("#search-field").val(qqry.split(':').pop())
