Javascript用空白字符串替换html标签

Question

I am trying to replace all the /n, <br> and space in the string and replace them with '' .

My approach is using replace . However, I am getting the following errors.

Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected string

I know

console.log(text.value[langID]) would output bunch of texts.

but I got the error when I changed my codes to this.

console.log(text.value[langID].replace('/\n|<br>|\s/g', ''));

I am not sure what went wrong here and if my rex pattern can filter my requirements.

Can anyone gives me a hint?

Thanks so much!

You missed the comma separator for replace parameters. Also, as @Ingo Bürk pointed out, quotes for regex expression are not valid so you have to remove them too

console.log(text.value[langID].replace(/\n|<br>|\s/g,''));
