Anonymous didn't test his/her code before submitting it...

The line:
var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a.length).toLowerCase();

SHOULD read:
var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a[1].length).toLowerCase();

otherwise it munches the string.

There is a bug in the second code code

on the line:

var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a.length).toLowerCase();

it should read:

var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a[i].length).toLowerCase();

Otherwise it takes the length of the array and not the element of the array.

There is a bug in the second script the line:
var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a.length).toLowerCase();

should be

var restOfWord = a[i].substring(1, a[i].length).toLowerCase();

However, I love the site it's a great tool to use to keep me from having to actually sit down and learn JavaScript! I just learn it as I need it. (I haven't used any other the other languages much yet, but I'm sure I will)

Thank you for the useful code. The second method worked great when "substr" was used instead of "substring" for the statement

var restOfWord =
a[i].substr(1).toLowerCase();

The posted by Anonymos Code works fine also with German Umlauts if one bug is fixed:

a.length ->(to) a[i].length
