how to replace with (/) forward slash

In replace function you can see that we are passing the regular expression to replace, but if the data is dynamic and i want to replace it in runtime ?? i have to store the data in a variable and now comes the question how i can use a variable in replace function ????

suppose you are getting the value from the textbox called subject

var subject    = document.getElementById('subject').value;

var main_str = "i am working as a php developer, php is favorite language ";

//i want to replace the subject variable - but as a rule in replace function we have to pass a regular exprssion
// so we cannot write

 main_str = main_str.replace(subject  ,'JAVA');

we have to convert the subject to a regular expression

var sRegExInput = new RegExp(subject, "g");    

 main_str = main_str.replace(sRegExInput ,'JAVA');

You have to escape the "/" like this (no need for a recursive function):

"2011/02/02".replace(/\//g," ");

Gives "2011 02 02"

Hi Karthik,

In JavaScript a quoted string is an instance of the String object. This means any of the following is possible:

"Hello".length;

"Hello".match(/l/g);

"Hello".replace(/lo/g,"p");

"Hello".concat(" Karthik");

Give it a try.

Regards,
Kobus

Once you become a student, you see that some essay topics are extremely popular among teachers. Environmental pollution is one of such topics. As you are moving towards graduation, you will have to submit at least one environmental pollution essays. This is why it is so difficult for students to produce something really outstanding on the subject.

It's simple you have to put this JavaScript

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

        function change()

        {

            var test = 'HIiiiiiiiii/fdfd';

            alert(test.replace('/', ' '));

        }

    </script>

Replace the JavaScript with the Following

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">

        var test = "HIi/iiiiiiii/fd//fd";

        function change()

        {            

            test = test.replace("/", " ");

            if(test.indexOf("/") != -1)

                change();            

        }

        function change1()

        {

            change();

            alert(test);

        }

</script>

call the Function change1()
