.replace "</div>" in js

Question

I have a string as following:

this is an example of </div>

Then using .replace, I want to get replace </div> with something else.

content.replace(/</div>/g,'function'); //remove </div>

However, the "/" inside of bracket is causing an error. How would I fix this?

Answer 1

You need to escape the slash. Try something like this:

content.replace(/<\/div>/g,'');
