Regular expression in JavaScript - Replace Image src attribute

rated 0 times [ 15] [ 5] / answers: 1 / hits: 17844 / 15 Years ago, wed, august 19, 2009, 12:00:00

In JavaScript I have a string containing a DOM fragment. How would I find and replace the src attribute of an image?

I would like to replace the path of all images with a new path but keeping the image name. Not all the paths are the same and can come from various locations.
My regular expression skills are poor at best.

For example:

Change



   <img src='path/to/image/name.jpg' />



into 



   <img src='newPath/name.jpg' />

Try this:

str.replace(/src='(?:[^'/]*/)*([^']+)'/g, src='newPath/$1');
