Native Javascript String Class Enhancements

This post consist of a cluster of functions that are used to extend the usage of Javascript String Object with custom functions which are added to the native String object's prototype

The native Javascript String Object will be enhanced with the following properties if the scripts in this post are included into your application.

• strLeft 
• strLeftBack
• strRight
• strRightBack
• replaceAll
• toProperCase
