Replacing strings with regex in JavaScript

Question

A particular regular expression is bugging me right now. I simply want to replace the in a string like

var string = '...commonstringblabla<b>&range=100&</b>stringandsoon...';

with

...commonstringblabla<b>&range=400&</b>stringandsoon...

I successfully matched the "range=100"-part with

alert( string.match(/range=100/) );

But when I try to replace it,

string.replace(/range=100/, 'range=400');

nothing happens. The string still has the range=100 in it. How can I make it work?

Answer 1

因为replace不会修改它所应用的字符串，但会返回一个新字符串。

string = string.replace(/range=100/, 'range=400');

Answer 2

string.replace isn't destructive, meaning, it doesn't change the instance it is called on.

To do this use

string = string.replace("range=100","range=400");

Answer 3

I would do this:

string.replace(/([?&])range=100(?=&|$)/, '$1range=400')

This will only replace range=100 if it's a URI argument (so it's delimited on the left by either ? or & and on the right by & or the end of the string).

Answer 4

Write only string.replace("range=100","range=400"); .

Answer 5

我会这样做的

string = string.replace(/\brange=100(?!\d)/, 'range=400');
