Javascript replace “ ' ” with “ '' ”

Question

I\'m trying to replace the \"\'\" character with the \"\'\'\" string using the replace method, like this:

temp.replace(\"\\\'\", \"\'\'\");

but

Answer 1

The problem is that

temp.replace("\'", "''");

will only replace the first instance of '. To fix this, do the following instead

temp.replace(/'/g, "''"));

This will ensure it goes though and replaces all instances of the single quote instead of just the first.
