This will get all the numbers separated by coma:
var str = "10 is smaller than 11 but greater then 9"; var pattern = /[0-9]+/g; var matches = str.match(pattern);
After execution, the string matches
will have values "10,11,9"
If You are just looking for thew first occurrence, the pattern will be /[0-9]+/
– which will return 10
(There is no need for JQuery)
