im using a basic textbox:

<asp:TextBox runat="server" ID="fullName" CssClass="textBoxes"></asp:TextBox>

Assuming the functionality you want it to only keep the value of the string after the /, not just to simply replace the ‘Hello/’, try this:

$(".textBoxes").blur(function() {
    var values = $(this).val().split('/');
    $(this).val(values[values.length-1])
});
