How to replace a hypen (-) with a slash (\) in Javascript?

for example, I need to replace

C-MyDocuments-VisualStudio2008-MyProjects

with

C\MyDocuments\VisualStudio2008\MyProjects

I tried replace function such as variable.replace("-","\") but it showed me error of unterminated string constant.

I am working in VS 2008.

• Peeve of mind, but please learn... "/" is slash, and "\" is backslash. – Randal Schwartz Commented Dec 24, 2009 at 7:04

You need to escape the slash with an additional backslash like this:

variable = variable.replace("-","\\");

To replace the hyphen globally, try this:

variable = variable.replace(/-/g, "\\");

This uses a regular expression to search the string for the hyphen and the g modifier indicates that replacements should be global.

Try this:

variable.replace("-","\\")

You need to escape the slash char.

Try replacing with "\\" (two backslashes).

A single backslash escapes the following character.
