Replace Numbers in Text

I am trying to replace / remove multiple Charactes out of a String. From Sharepoint i take multiple Values as far as i can see i cannot remove those ID Informations while i am get the Values out of a list with sharepointPlus Script. So i try to do it later with jquery and replace. What i get from the List is the following:

Structure to be removed: ;#number and ;# after the Device Name.

As i can see the structure is different, the Main Entries has ID;#Name;# the Last One just ID;#Name

The part of the script that i currently use is:

$("td.affectedDevices:contains(';#')").each(function() {
    $(this).html(function(index, text) {
        return text.replace('0', '')
                   .replace('1', '')
                   .replace('2', '')
                   .replace('3', '')
                   .replace('4', '')
                   .replace('5', '')
                   .replace('6', '')
                   .replace('7', '')
                   .replace('8', '')
                   .replace('9', '')
                   .replace(';#', '');
    });
});

I am using this Code on another Place where i take just one Entry out of the Table, then it works.

The Problem is, the JS Above takes the First "Number;#" entry of each String... AND the Number of the Device as you can see in the screenshot below:

ActualState

Should be Galaxy S6 <br /> Galaxy S6 edge and so on...

i am found already some similar questions & answers here but the solutions don't worked at all...

Replacing Wildcard Text the solution looks good but

$("td.affectedDevices:contains(';#')").each(function() {
    $(this).html(function(index, text) {
        return text.replace(/\([0-9]\);#/, '');
    });
});

Doesn't have any effect... Anyone can help me to solve this? Or a better idea to do the whole thing?

Fiddle

Thanks for your help Kind regards

$("td").each(function() {
    $(this).html(function(index, text) {
        return text.replace(/[0-9]?;#/g, '').replace(/^[0-9]/g, '');
    });
});

Hope this would help you.

Change your code to this:

$("td.affectedDevices:contains(';#')").each(function() {
    var string = $(this).html(),
    split = string.split('#'),
    newContent = '',
    re = /^[a-zA-Z]+$/;

    $.each(split, function( key, value ) {
        if(/^[a-zA-Z]/.test(value)) newContent = newContent + value.replace(';', '') + '<br />';
    });
    $(this).html(newContent);
});

Working example: https://jsfiddle.net/vgkyoywq/

Good luck!
