replace all occurrences in a string

I have this string:

"12-3-02"

And I would like to convert it to :

"12/3/02"

How would I do this? I ‘ve tried :

.replace(/-/,"/")

But this only replaces the first one it finds. How do I replace all instances?

Answer 1

One of these (using split, or a global RegEx flag):

str = str.split('-').join('/'); // No RegExp needed

str = str.replace(/-/g, '/');   // `g` (global) has to be added.
