How can I remove all whitespace and carriage returns from a string? [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:

Remove ALL white spaces from text [duplicate]

2 answers

I have string which is returning this to me:

<div class="sqs-layout sqs-grid-12 columns-12" data-layout-label="Post Body" data-type="item" data-updated-on="1539277027193" id="item-5bbf7e3f9140b70d3962e2a0"><div class="row sqs-row"><div class="col sqs-col-12 span-12"><div class="sqs-block image-block sqs-block-image" data-block-type="5" id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1539794362468_25479"><div class="sqs-block-content">nn  nn  tn      <div class="image-block-outer-wrapper">

Any idea how I can remove all the whitespaces and put this into a JS variable? I have tried countless variations of this:

.replace(/[ntr]/g,"")

but nothing working yet...

Why does it matter, purily out of curiousity? Can't you just change the source of the data, instead of fighting the symptoms?

Try s for whitespace.

You have to assign the value after the replace to another variable or the same variable. This is because strings are immutable. Also add s on the regex pattern.

var a = "nn  nn  tn      "

var b = a.replace(/[ntrs]/g, '');



//now b = "" and a still is "nn  nn  tn      "

a = a.replace(/[ntrs]/g, '');  // this also work
