Cross browser String#split implementation.
var split = require('browser-split');
// Basic use
split('a b c d', ' ');
// => ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd']
// With limit
split('a b c d', ' ', 2);
// => ['a', 'b']
// Backreferences in result array
split('..word1 word2..', /([a-z]+)(\d+)/i);
// => ['..', 'word', '1', ' ', 'word', '2', '..']
Splits a string into an array of strings using a regex or string separator. Matches of the
separator are not included in the result array. However, if separator
is a regex that contains
capturing groups, backreferences are spliced into the result each time separator
is matched.
Fixes browser bugs compared to the native String.prototype.split
and can be used reliably
cross-browser.
string
