replace all occurence of a string with a character using javascript

Question

I wan to replace all occurrence of a string with single quote but with str.replace it only replaces the first occurrence of the script:

"7<singleQuote>1 inche<singleQuote>s"

Code

var data = "7<singleQuote>1 inche<singleQuote>s"
var output = data.replace("<singleQuote>","'")

Output: 7'1 inche<singleQuote>s

I want to replace <singleQuote> with '.

Answer 1

Use regex with g flag:

var output = data.replace(/<singleQuote>/g, "'");

MDN: String.prototype.replace.
