Answer 1

JavaScript strings provide you with replace method which takes as a parameter a string of which the first instance is replaced or a RegEx, which if being global, replaces all instances.

Example:

var str = 'aba';
str.replace('a', ''); // results in 'ba'
str.replace(/a/g, ''); // results in 'b'

If you alert str - you will get back the same original string cause strings are immutable. You will need to assign it back to the string :

str = str.replace('a', '');
