String replace in var with jQuery.

Question

Hi,

I am having trouble trying to get all my form data and break it down for debugging. I just want to replace the "&" with a new line.

var formData = $("#customer_details_form").serialize();  
var debugData = formData.text().replace(/&/g,'\n');

Thanks

Answer 1

formData is an ordinary string.
Remove the .text() call.

Answer 2

jQuery's .serialize() method returns a String, not a jQuery object, so get rid of .text().

var formData = $("#customer_details_form").serialize();  
var debugData = formData.replace(/&/g,'\n');

Answer 3

The variable formData has the string, so text() shouldn't be necessary.
Try formData.replace(/&/g,'\n');.
