Question

This is my code :

$(".tooltip").live('click', function() {
    var texte = $('#tiptip_content').text();
    $('#subheader').html(texte);
});

var texte contains some texte with <br/> tags and <b></b> tag.
I would like to add this text to #subheader but with <br/> changed to “double space” and <b></b> tag deleted.

How can I do that please ?

Answer 1

As for a non regex solution.

Since .text() strips out any <elements/> you can use .replaceWith() to change your <br/> to   

var d = $('#tiptip_content').clone();
var texte = d.find("br").replaceWith("  ").end().text();
$('#subheader').html(texte);
