Multiple Replace in a string

[JS]

Is it possible to do multiple replaces in a string?

Example: I'm trying to replace all of the spaces with "%20" and "#" with
"%23", etc. I also need to replace the "?", "!", " ' ", etc.

I know I can do this with:
thisString.Repl ace(" ", "%20")
thisString.Repl ace("#", "%23")

But, I'm trying to find a way to do this one line of code.

Any Ideas?

TIA

Re: Multiple Replace in a string

JS,
Have you tried:[color=blue]
> thisString.Repl ace(" ", "%20")
> thisString.Repl ace("#", "%23")[/color]

thisString = thisString.Repl ace(" ", "%20").Replace( "#", "%23").
[color=blue]
> Example: I'm trying to replace all of the spaces with "%20" and "#" with
> "%23", etc. I also need to replace the "?", "!", " ' ", etc.[/color]
Although you may be approaching enough replacements that I would consider
using a StringBuilder instead. I would encapsulate the use of the
StringBuilder into a function, or possibly even a class.

Hope this helps
