Regex to match last space character

Question

I need some help. I am looking for a regex that would match the last space character in a string. I am using JavaScript and classic ASP. I have a long string of text which I trim to 100 characters. I would like to remove the last character to avoid a spelling mistake if the trim cuts a word due to the 100 characters limit. ``` regex.replace(/[ ]$.*?/ig, ''); ``` Anybody with ideas? Thanks.

Accepted Answer

From my understanding, you need to remove the last space and everything after it, right?

```
 str = str.replace(/\s+\S*$/, "")
```
