Answer 1

None of these answers properly handle tabs, newlines, carriage returns, and some don't handle extended ASCII and unicode. This will KEEP tabs & newlines, but remove control characters and anything out of the ASCII set. Click "Run this code snippet" button to test. There is some new javascript coming down the pipe so in the future (2020+?) you may have to do \u{FFFFF} but not yet

console.log("line 1\nline2 \n\ttabbed\nF̸̡̢͓̳̜̪̟̳̠̻̖͐̂̍̅̔̂͋͂͐l̸̢̹̣̤̙͚̱͓̖̹̻̣͇͗͂̃̈͝a̸̢̡̬͕͕̰̖͍̮̪̬̍̏̎̕͘ͅv̸̢̛̠̟̄̿i̵̮͌̑ǫ̶̖͓͎̝͈̰̹̫͚͓̠̜̓̈́̇̆̑͜ͅ".replace(/[\x00-\x08\x0E-\x1F\x7F-\uFFFF]/g, ''))
