Thanks, Jon, for the example. I now also understand how to access the array
returned by the split method!

Oops, I was a little quick on the Send button, my suggestion should have
read:

var myStrParts = myStr.split(" / ");
var rightTwoThirds = myStrParts[1] + " / " + parts[2];

assuming that you wanted to get rid of the leading space.

sorry about that!
