Syntax

string.replace(regexpression, replacestring)

The replace() method searches the string for the regular expression passed to the method.

If a match is found, the method returns a new string with that match replaced with the replacement string passed to the method.

See the reference entry for RegExp.

    var myRegExp = /is/g;

    var newString = myString.replace(myRegExp, "test");

    document.write('Notice the last name in the original string, ' + myString);

    document.write(', was replaced and is now '+ newString);
