View source for UnicodeAfter (Unicode function)

{{Template:Unicode:UnicodeAfter subtitle}}

<var>UnicodeAfter</var> operates on a Unicode variable or string and returns the portion of that string after a user-specified delimiter.  To get the portion of the string before a delimiter, use the <var>[[UnicodeBefore (Unicode function)|UnicodeBefore]]</var> method.

==Syntax==
{{Template:Unicode:UnicodeAfter syntax}}

===Syntax terms===
<table>
<tr><th>%outUnicode</th>
<td>A <var>Unicode</var> variable to hold the output of the parsed input string, <var class="term">unicode</var>.</td></tr>

<tr><th>unicode</th>
<td>A <var>Unicode</var> string that holds the string to be parsed.</td></tr>

<tr><th>substring</th>
<td>A <var>Unicode</var> string that holds the separator character or characters on which parsing occurs.</td></tr>

<tr><th><var>Start</var></th>
<td>This numeric value is the starting point for parsing. The default value is 1, indicating the beginning of the string.  
<p>
This is a [[Notation conventions for methods#Named arguments|name required]] argument, and it cannot be 0. If a value larger than the string length is specified, the method returns a null string. </p></td></tr>
</table>

==Usage notes==
<ul>
<li>If a starting value is entered, the <var class="term">%outUnicode</var> value is the content of the string that begins after the first occurrence of the delimiter substring encountered after the specified start point, and that ends at the end of the string.
<p>
The delimiter string is not a list of individual delimiters; it is a single delimiter which may be multiple characters. If your delimiter is "ok", the method looks for occurrences of those two lowercase letters, and it returns a value that starts after the first occurrence found after the starting point. </p></li>
 
<li>This method is always case-sensitive. </li>
</ul>

==Examples==
In the following request, the given initial string is "Manos: The Hands of Fate [is a D-minus] of a B movie". The substring that follows the left square bracket (<tt>[</tt>) character representation is excerpted by <var>UnicodeAfter</var>. The request uses an [[Release notes for Model 204 version 7.6#New XHTML entities for square-bracket characters|enhancement for square-bracket handling]] introduced in version 7.6 of Model&nbsp;204. 
<p class="code">begin      
%x is unicode
%x = 'Manos: The Hands of Fate <b>&lsqb;</b>is a D-minus<b>&rsqb;</b> '<b>:U</b> 'of a B movie'
printText {%x:unicodeAfter('&lsqb;'<b>:U</b>)}
end
</p>
<p>
The result is:</p>
<p class="output">is a D-minus] of a B movie</p>
