I'm trying to figure out how to do the following with javascript:

If a substring is in the string, remove from the beginning of the substring till the end of the string from the string.

For example (pseudocode):

var mySub = 'Foo'

var myString = 'testingFooMiscText'

var myString2 = 'testingMisctext'



var myStringEdit = //myString - (Foo till end myString)

var myString2Edit = myString2 //(cause no Foo in it)
