Hello everyone,
I'm having trouble with a simple function. In fact, "replace" is not working
as I thought it was going to... It should (?) replace ALL matches in a
string, but is replacing just the first one.
my code:
<script>
function formatField(fieldName){
var formatedField = fieldName.replace('x','y');
fieldName.value = formatedField;
}
</script>
<input type="text" onchange="formatField(this);">
Is something wrong? I've tried many different ways to do it unsuccesful... I
type "xxx" in the field and it returns "yxx".
