How do I split a variable length field using html

Question

How do I insert a space/carriage return after a designated number of characters (eight) within a designated html field pulling from a table?

Example:

<ebs:PMLOAD TABLE='DS_CLAIM'><ebs:PMVAL FIELD='DS_CLAIM.CGROUPING_FIELD'></ebs:PMVAL></ebs:PMLOAD>

So if the field contains 12345678910, the output would read:

12345678
910

You will need JavaScript to do this. – Kevin Boucher May 23 '13 at 20:37 — Kevin Boucher, May 23 '13 at 20:37

With HTML you don't. JavaScript is the handler, Using replace method.

str = "1234567890";
alert(str.replace(/^(.{8})(.*)$/mg,'\1 \2'));

var arr = string.split(""), output;
arr.splice(8, 0, ' ');
output = arr.join('');
