[SOLVED] JavaScript equivalent of PHP's strpbrk function?

JavaScript equivalent of PHP's strpbrk function?

In PHP, I can use the strpbrk function to determine if a certain string contains a certain set of characters. Is there a way to do that in JavaScript?

TIA.

Edit: for those who may know JS but not PHP, strpbrk takes an input string and a string containing what you want to match as its arguments, and returns a string starting from the first character found if a match if found, or false if one isn't.

Solution

See here: Javascript equivalent for PHP's strpbrk

function strpbrk (haystack, char_list) {

  for (var i = 0, len = haystack.length; i < len; ++i) {
    if (char_list.indexOf(haystack.charAt(i)) >= 0) {
      return haystack.slice(i);
    }
  }
  return false;
