![Replace a portion of a string with something else](https://javascriptsource.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Replace-a-portion-of-a-string-with-something-else-702x526.jpg)
The replace()
method accepts two arguments: the string to find, and the string to replace it with.
var text = 'I love Cape Cod potato chips!';
// returns "I love Lays potato chips!"
text.replace('Cape Cod', 'Lays');
By default, the replace()
method replaces the first match. To replace all matches, you’ll need to pass in a regular expression with the global flag (g
).
var chips = 'Cape Cod potato chips are my favorite brand of chips.';
// Only replaces the first instance of the word "chips"
chips.replace('chips', 'deep fried potato slices');
// Replaces all instances of the word "chips"
chips.replace(new RegExp('chips', 'g'), 'deep fried potato slices');
