Tutorial :multiple replaces with javascript [duplicate]

Question:

This question already has an answer here:

• Replace multiple strings with multiple other strings 12 answers

In PHP, you do this to replace more then one value at a time.

<?php  $string = "i am the foobar";    $newstring = str_replace(array('i', 'the'), array('you', 'a'), $string);    echo $newstring;  ?>  

How do you do this in javascript?

Solution:1

Use javascript's .replace() method, stringing multiple replace's together. ie:

var somestring = "foo is an awesome foo bar foo foo"; //somestring lowercase  var replaced = somestring.replace(/foo/g, "bar").replace(/is/g, "or");  // replaced now contains: "bar or an awesome bar bar bar bar"  

Solution:2

You could do:

var string = "jak har en mamma";    string = string.replace(/(jak)|(mamma)/g,function(str,p1,p2) {          if(p1) return 'du';          if(p2) return 'pappa';      });  

or:

var string = "jak har en mamma";    string = string.replace(/jak/g,'du').replace(/mamma/g,'pappa');
