JAVASCRIPT - HOW TO Count the Number of Times a String Occurs Within Another String

You would think Javascript would have a built in function to tell us the number of times word appears in string or the number of times a character appears in a string, but Javscript is a very rich programming language so lets not complain

function funcFoundCount(strToCheck, strSearching, bCaseSensitive){ // IF WE DONT CARE ABOUT IF THE STRING WE ARE SEARCH FOR IS UPPER OR LOWER CASE // MAKE THE STRING WE ARE SEARCH AND THE STRING WE ARE SEARCHING FOR SAME CASE if(bCaseSensitive == false){ strToCheck = strToCheck.toLowerCase(); strSearching = strSearching.toLowerCase(); } return (strToCheck.split(strSearching).length - 1); }
