Reformat string

How could I delete all the # symbols out of a string? Been working on this for a while with no success.

I want to turn something like this:
var str = 'this # is my sting #';

into this:
var str = 'this is my sting';


thanks in advance..

Use a regular expression:That gets rid of #'s. If you care about getting rid of extra white space, you can use a separate regexp for that or use something like the following which will also capture optional surrounding white space and replace everything with a single space.HTML ignores extra white space so it may not matter.
