如何解决脚本的无效正则表达式标志？

Question

How can I solve this code error when running!

 var replaced = $("body").html().replace(/<td>YES</td>/g,'<span class="yes"></span>'); $("body").html(replaced); 

I want to replace all

<td>YES</td>

with

<span class="yes"></span>

Answer 1

Consider:

$("td").filter(function() {
    return $(this).text() === 'YES';
}).replaceWith('<span class="yes"></span>');

This finds all the td elements and filters for the ones with YES as the only contents and the replaces them.

Answer 2

try to use an escape character for the closing td in your expression

var replaced = $("body").html().replace(/<td>YES<\/td>/g,'<span class="yes"></span>');
$("body").html(replaced);
