repeating strings

[Warcaptain]

im wondering how i can tell how many times a partstr appears in a string an
d also to display it as a variable

The following script might work, since I'm writing it here and now without testing:

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  setstring string,abbaaaabaab;

  setstring partstring,b;

  this.partcount=0;

  this.indexof=0;

  while (this.indexof!=-1) {

    this.indexof=indexof(#s(partstring),#e(this.indexo  f,-1,#s(string));

    this.partcount+=(this.indexof!=-1);

  }

  message #s(partstring) occurs #v(this.partscount) times in #s(string);

}

---

If it does work it should display the following message: "b occurs 4 times in abbaaaabaab"
