Replace all backslashes in a string with a pipe
I have the string: \rnosapmdwq\salesforce\R3Q\OutputFiles\Archive
I’m getting a unrecognized escape sequence when I try to send this to a .NET web service.
I’m trying to replace all of the “\” with “|” to send it to the server.
I know I can use the replace method but that only replaces the first element. I think I need to use a regular expression to solve it.
Here’s what I have so far:
Path = Path.replace("\\/g", "|");
This is wrong though.
You don’t need to make a regex a string, and it helps having that first / in there
Path = Path.replace(/\\/g, "|")
The correct syntax would be: Path = Path.replace(/\\/g, "|");
Working example at: http://jsfiddle.net/eDKej/.
Example (extra code for demonstration purposes only):
var Path = $("#path").text();
Path = Path.replace(/\\/g, "|");
$("#new-path").append(Path);
