Replace multiple strings with multiple other strings

I\'m trying to replace multiple words in a string with multiple other words. The string is \"I have a cat, a dog, and a goat.\"

However, this does not produce \"I ha

Answer 1

Just in case someone is wondering why the original poster's solution is not working:

var str = "I have a cat, a dog, and a goat.";

str = str.replace(/cat/gi, "dog");
// now str = "I have a dog, a dog, and a goat."

str = str.replace(/dog/gi, "goat");
// now str = "I have a goat, a goat, and a goat."

str = str.replace(/goat/gi, "cat");
// now str = "I have a cat, a cat, and a cat."
