How to split string starting from a certain place?

Assume I have this string cde123abc, I want it to split into followings: cde, 123, abc.

The above string is just an example, please imagine any string which contains characters and numbers.

How to do that? Regular expression??

Assuming you want to split to letters and numbers, the following should work:

while ((m = str.match (/^(\d+|[a-zA-Z]+)(.*)/)) {
    result.push (m [0]);
    str = m [1];
}

Use regular expression match().

alert('cde123abc'.match(/[a-zA-Z]+|[0-9]+/g))

If you always have letters numbers letters then this should work:

var str = 'cde123abc';
var result = str.split(/([0-9]+)/);
alert(JSON.stringify(result));
