Javascript find-and-replace special characters

Question

I have a string that may contain an apostrophe (') or an ampersand (&). I need to find if either one or both exists. If they do, then replace them with '' and/or '&

trim(Pos_Query_Super.replace(/'/g,"''"))

Can I add an and/or condition to the above and simply replace it using javascript? This development is in an process flow IDE were we can use JS expressions.

Answer 1

Yes, you can use a function to return the replacement based on the match

trim(Pos_Query_Super.replace(/'|&/g,function(match){
    return {
            '\'':'\''', 
            '&':'\'&'
           }[match]
}));
