I need to know if actionscript has a find() fuction:

The function needs to remove anything after the ? in a url (including itself) if a ? is present.

Kind of like:  
index = Find(\_root.page, “?”)  
if (index \> false) {  
thePage = left(\_root.page, index)  
} else {  
thePage = \_root.page  
}

Can anyone help?
