  • Remove ALL white spaces from text [duplicate]

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...






javascript regex

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

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

            Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

            0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem?
