• String Removal

    How would one say... Ok, I KNOW that string1 is in string2, I want to REMOVE string1 from string2, how do I do that?

    I know in older days of programming you had to split a string into 3 different sections and resplice them together.

    Is that still the most efficient method?

    JavaScript provides the String.replace() method which works well for this.

    string1 = string1.replace(string2, "")

    I tried the replace method, did not work, no clue why.

    Post some samples of what you tried.
