Regex to remove apostrophe

Question

how do I get rid of the \'

I have tried

.replace (/\\\'/ig         


        

Answer 1

If you just want to have letters and spaces in your result, you could always match any character that isn't one of those, such as...

.replace (/[^a-zA-Z ]+/ig, '');

You could of course also add any other characters you desired to permit to the regex.
