Question

Answer 1

+3 A:

You have to use the g modifier (for global) on your replace call.

str = str.replace(/searchString/g,”replaceWith”)

In your particular case it would be:

str = str.replace (/\//g, "_");

Note that you must escape the / in the regular expression.

You may also need the "m" option for a multiline string.
