I already looked at the Mozzila website and W3schools but couldn't find the answer
var someFunction = function (someString, someOtherString)
{
if (someOtherString.match(someString))
{
someString = new RegExp(someString);
someOtherString = someOtherString.replace(someString, "XXX");
return someOtherString;
}
return null;
};
someFunction("dog", "dogeatdog");
Now I want the above RegExp to be applied globally but I don't know where/how to add the g
character so that the above function call returns XXXeatXXX
.
Any help would be appreciated!

Flags go in the second argument of the RegExp
constructor, eg
new RegExp(someString, 'g')
