RE: [xsl] find and replace in javascript with XMLDOM object

["Chen, Gin" <Gin_Chen at tvratings dot com>]

This is a javascript error. Replace only replaces the first occurance of it.
Try this instead:

..
var htmloutput =  newxmlDoc.transformNode(newxslDoc)

var re = /</ //reg expression to look for

while( htmloutput.search( re ) != -1 )
   htmloutput = htmloutput.replace( re, "<");

document.write(htmloutput); 
...

Subject: [xsl] find and replace in javascript with XMLDOM object


Hello,

Hopefully this will be a very simple answer. I have a
javascript that takes an XML and an XSL document and
transforms them into a variable. 

var htmloutput =  newxmlDoc.transformNode(newxslDoc)

that done, I want to search the htmloutput variable
for a string and replace:

var htmlout = htmloutput.replace(/&lt;/, "<");
document.write(htmlout); 

this works, but only for the first line... how can I
find and replace *every* occurrence?

Bryan
