How to replace all occurrences of a string?

Question

I have this string:

"Test abc test test abc test test test abc test test abc"

Doing:

str = str.replace('abc', '');

seems to only remove the first occurrence of abc in the string above.

How can I replace all occurrences of it?

Answer 1

You can use split and join method for replacing all occurrences of a string below is the code for the same:-

string="Test abc test test abc test test test abc test test abc"

String.prototype.replaceAll = function(search, replacement) { var target = this; 

return target.split(search).join(replacement); 

};
