string.replace()

[adiMasher]

Okay, this seems a little weird, but I get different performance from netscape to MS

MS replaces all instances of the searched string and Netscape only replaces the first instance

How do I make netscape replace all instances in StringVar.replace("searchstring", "replaceStr"

Thank you,

Ah well no longer do I post the question that I remember that you can use Regular expressions

stringVar = stringVar.replace(/test/g, "TEST");

use regex and use the "g" option for global

may also want to use gi for global ignore case depending on the value you are replacing ---------------------------------------
{ str = "sleep is good for you. sleep gives you the energy you need to function";
ptr = /sleep/gi;Nstr = str.replace(ptr,"coffee"alert(Nstr); }
