I plan to click on a file in the working folder and have the jscript remove the file leaving the path to the folder. i used the split method and us '\' to seperate the different folders. The '\' generates a error "unterminated string constant" when i try to compile it. Right now i select the a file in the folder I want to use and remove the file name. can anyone help me Post by Jack Edwards // Feb 4, 2009, 12:31pm Jack Edwards Total Posts: 4062 This should do it for you: function StripPath(Str) { var pos = Str.lastIndexOf('\\'); if (pos > 0) { return Str.substring(0, pos + 1); } return Str; } Remember that '\' is an escape character so to actually get a \ you need to use '\\'. Also be aware that JScript uses a single quote to begin and terminate a string. Post by Shell1850 // Feb 4, 2009, 12:55pm Shell1850 Total Posts: 13 Fanstastic Clean and effiicient.
