JavaScript .replace only replaces first Match [duplicate]

by

You need a /g on there, like this:

var textTitle = "this is a test";
var result = textTitle.replace(/ /g, '%20');

console.log(result);

You can play with it here, the default .replace() behavior is to replace only the first match, the /g modifier (global) tells it to replace all occurrences.
