Removing Numbers from a String using Javascript

Question

How do I remove numbers from a string using Javascript? I am not very good with regex at all but I think I can use with replace to achieve the above? It would actually be great if there was something JQuery offered already to do this? ``` //Something Like this?? var string = 'All23'; string.replace('REGEX', ''); ``` I appreciate any help on this.

Accepted Answer

`\d` matches any number, so you want to replace them with an empty string:

```
string.replace(/\d+/g, '')
```

I've used the `+` modifier here so that it will match all adjacent numbers in one go, and hence require less replacing. The `g` at the end is a flag which means "global" and it means that it will replace ALL matches it finds, not just the first one.
