Answer 1

Added a method replace_in_javascript which will satisfy your requirement. Also found that you are writing a string "new_text" in document.write() which is supposed to refer to a variable new_text.

let replace_in_javascript= (replaceble, replaceTo, text) => {
  return text.replace(replaceble, replaceTo)
}

var text = "this is some sample text that i want to replace";
var new_text = replace_in_javascript("want", "dont want", text);
document.write(new_text);
