In javascript, how How do you search an array for a substring match?

I need to search an array in javascriptJavaScript. The search would be for only part of the string to match as the string would have addtional numbers assigned to itadditional components. I would then need to return the successfully matched array element with the full string.

i.e.Example:

var windowArray = new Array ("item","thing","id-3-text","class");

const windowArray = [ "item", "thing", "id-3-text", "class" ];

I need to search for the array element with "id-" in it and iI need to pull the rest of the text in the element as well (iei.e. "id-3-text").

ThanksHow do I do that?

How do you search an array for a substring match?

I need to search an array in JavaScript. The search would be for only part of the string to match as the string would have additional components. I would then need to return the successfully matched array element with the full string.

Example:

const windowArray = [ "item", "thing", "id-3-text", "class" ];

I need to search for the array element with "id-" in it and I need to pull the rest of the text in the element as well (i.e. "id-3-text").

How do I do that?
