webshark · 09-27-2012, 10:57 PM

I am looking for a way to find and replace multiple words within a sentence using javascript. Ideally I would like to take a sentence and replace multiple words within that sentence i.e.

text **WORD 1** text | text **WORD 2** text

How can I replace both WORD1 and WORD2 with independent different words?

i.e.
WORD1= New-word-1
WORD2= New-word-2

here is the code:

and to take it one step further I would like to pull new word values from an excel sheet, run a loop with the new words to be replaced and have the output of the new sentences all on one page.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
