$(this).html().replace("0 days","");
i want to replace "0 days" to become "". Currently the above statement will replace "0" to "" . that is not what i want. i want to replace entire statement "0 days"

A:
This will replace only the first occurrence. If you want to replace all occurrences:
$(this).html().replace(/0 days/g, '');
Example:
alert('foo 0 days bar 0 days foobar'.replace(/0 days/g, ''));
shows:
foo bar foobar

Not my downvote - but, while this is correct, it doesn't really explain his current behavior of replacing the `"0"` but not the `" days"` portion...

he wants to replace all the given words with a single empty character, or null, or simply remove them

@Nick, this behavior is inexplicable from what the OP provided as information. I gave a counter example for this.

@Darin - I concur, what he posted doesn't make any sense given the provided code, something outside the question going on here.
