String Replace in JQuery & Java Script

In this article we are going to explain few important use cases of String replace and how to achieve it in a faster way.

jQuery or JS string replacement functionality which returns a new string after replacing each target element with the set of matched elements. This method can be used to replace the occurrence of any string in a sentence or a group of strings.

The replace() method searches a string for a specified value, or a regular expression, and returns a new string where the specified values are to be replaced.

String replace in JS


<p id="demoPara"> ProcodersOnline.com is a platform to get quality tricks</p>

<script>
  document.getElementById("demoPara").innerHTML = str.replace("tricks", "tricks and hacks");
</script>

String replace using CLASS or ID in jQuery


$(document).ready(function() {
$("DIV with class or ID selector").html( "New Text" );
});

Jquery method is very easy to use, Because you can add nested DIV’s as well by multiple DIV’s by separating with the comma.

Globally string replace in JS


<p id="demoParagraph">Red car, Red Bike, Red taxi</p>
 
<script>
  let divString = document.getElementById("demoParagraph").innerHTML; 
  let res = divString.replace(/Red/g, "White");
  document.getElementById("demoParagraph").innerHTML = res;
</script>

This is used when you have to replace the Global changes. In the above code “/g” defines Global.
