javascript string manipulation (modifying chars inside a string)
This is simple, but I just forget and it's hard to search it... How do you modify a chars inside a string? For example, convert "_" to " " (spaces.)

Thanks, that worked. Here's the code:
"originalstr" is an array of strings. "modifiedstr" is the modified string, modified once for each element in the "originalstr" array. The code: re=RegExp('_','gi'); modifiedstr=originalstr[i].replace(re,' ');

For me, the code did not work. But this one did:
re = new RegExp('_','gi'); modifiedstr = originalstr[i].replace(re,' '); To make it complete, the following replace function will replace any string by any string inside a string: Code:
<html>
<head>
<script>
function replace(myString, toReplace, replacedBy) {
return(myString.replace(new RegExp(toReplace, 'gi'), replacedBy));
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="alert(replace('blablabla', 'bl', 'c'));">
</body>
</html>

What browser are you using? Look like you had to add "new" in front of "RegExp"... why is that? Is it possible my code is not working in some browsers?!
