I have a string that i would like to remove all occurrences of  

I tried this and it did not work.

    productName = productName.replace(<br>, );

However this worked but only for the first  

    productName = productName.replace(&lt;br&gt;, );

How would I get it to work for all   in the string.

Edit: this is the string...

My apologies for being a little misleading with the   as it should have been

Looks like your string is encoded so use

productName = productName.replace(/&lt;br&gt;/g, );

note the g after the regular expression which means globally, to match all occurrences.
