Hi,
I have a filter function for an array collection that I'm working with. In this
scenario, I start with an ID such as '1'. Based on that, I want to return
'1_1', '1_2', etc... Basically, an underscore followed by 1 digit.
Here's the code:
var currentID:String = item.id.toString(); // i.e. 1_1, 1_2, etc..
var testID:String = buttonID + '_'; // buttonID would equal 1
var pattern:RegExp = new RegExp('^' + testID + ".");
if( pattern.exec( currentID ))
return true;
else
return false;
The problem is that this filter is also returning other IDs such as '1_1_2',
'1_1_3'. I thought the '.' would limit it 1 character only after the
underscore.
Can anyone see where I may be going wrong?
Thank you!
