Nope, i'm in the middle of a 20 char string, when i leave out the +3 (or +1 or +2 or whatever) it works as expected. I just want to get a fixed number of characters past a substring match to the end of the string.

I don't see any exceptions or stacktraces at all, the resulting string is just empty.


I'm on 2.1.5.1 FWIW

note that the -3 or +3 are entirely random here, bottomline is that i
can subtract from the indexOf result, but not add to it...

Hi,

Can anyone explain me why
${mystring.substring(mystring.indexOf('abc'))} works,
${mystring.substring(mystring.indexOf('abc') - 3)} works

but
${mystring.substring(mystring.indexOf('abc') + 3 )} *not* ?


Thanks!
Jorg
