How to replace '/' in a string with nospace?

Question

I have to replace a string that contains / with no space.

Example :

Input: 'Test / Ignore';
Output: 'TestIgnore';

I know how to do other characters using str.replace(/ |-/g, '');, but I am not able to implement this str.replace(/ |//g,'');

Any suggestions appreciated.

You need to escape the `/` character as it has a special meaning in regex. — Ram, Nov 20 '16 at 12:14

You have to escape the slash, and put it at the beginning of the regex, like so:

str.replace(/ \/|-/g, '');

Use str.replace(/\/ | \s*/g,"").
