You can use the replace() method.
e.g.
loc = "#http://www.wesite.com/".replace(/#/ig, "");
alert( loc ); sacarias40 1 Junior Poster

You can use the
replace()method.
e.g.loc = "#http://www.wesite.com/".replace(/#/ig, ""); alert( loc );
You don't want to do a global search on this one, just remove the hash at the beginning. Otherwise, the URL you want to redirect to may have an anchor on it, e.g. #http://www.website.com/test.html#Contacts .
loc = "#http://www.wesite.com/".replace(/^#*/i, "");
alert(loc); essential 84 Posting Shark Featured Poster
No it's not that bad.
If you will apply proper techniques and good workaround in your script, im sure everything can be organized.
Here's a short example, so that you can see the big difference between the codes.

alert( loc ); // Check the first pattern and observed the output w/o g-flag.
delete loc;
loc = "#http://www.web#site.#com/".replace(/#/ig, ""); // With g-flag's!
alert( loc + url ) // Now we will use it with a global flag and by adding up some arguments' we can organized everything and also remove unnecessary characters in the url.
}
window.onload = include( "#contact" );
// ]]>

I suppose it depends on what your circumstances are. I assumed that he was using AJAX and had a link like what he proposed. If he just needed to remove the first #, he could also have done:
var string = "#http://www.example.com";
var newString = string.substr(1); essential 84 Posting Shark Featured Poster
Hi itsjared,
It's was just a logical example of using g-flag's.
