Question

I’m trying to achieve something that ‘should’ be fairly straightforward, bit I can’t find anything online to help me out.

I have some CSS class names that are being output with ampersands in them (its down to the system I’m using and is unavoidable). I’d like to use a little bit of jQuery to simply remove the ampersand, so a string that looks like:

class=”Middle&East”

would be

class=”MiddleEast”

Any help with this would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

To replace them all you could;

$('[class*=\\&]').each(function()  {
    $(this)[0].className = $(this)[0].className.replace(/&/g,"");      
})
