javascript regex split

Question

Is it possible to split a string twice with regex? For example, say I have the string:

[email protected]|fname|lname

how can I split to the result is:

[email protected],fname,lname

thanks...

You can manually remove the prefix:

str.substr(str.indexOf('=') + 1)
   .split('|')

How about this?

var result=myString.split("=", 2)[1].split("|");

You want to search and replace the '|' to ' , '.

Why dont you use replace()
