How to compare two strings case insensitive

[karan nayyar]

I intend to check if a string is a substring of another string. However, case insensitive match is not possible since  toLowerCase() and toUpperCase() methods are not supported in  Rhino 1.7.13.

var stored_string="{{SSHA1}9BC34549D565D9505B287DE0CD20AC77BE1D3F2C"

var str = "9bc34549d565d9505b287de0cd20ac77be1d3f2c"

I am using indexOf mathod to check for the substring.

if (stored_string.toString().indexOf(str)===0) {

   //do something

}

Is there any good way this comparison is possible case insensitive?

Based on what did you reach the conclusion that toUpper/LowerCase aren't supported in 1.7.13? Cause I'm pretty sure they are
