Question

I was trying to remove the “[“or “]” pattern present in a string.

var str = "abc<1<2<>3>4>def";

while (str != (str = str.replace(/<[^<>]*>/g, "")));

using the above code which is removing “<” “<>” “>” pattern when i try to replace this with my operators it does’nt work .

any ways can any one provide me any regex or small one liner to replace all the operator present.

For ex a= [1[2]3][4
should be after removing 1234
 or
a =1[2]3]
should be after removing 123

Answer 1

var str = "abc[1[2[]3]4]def".replace(/\[|\]/g, "");

Your while condition is not required here as the regex will remove all instances of [ and ] it finds due to the g global parameter.
