Regex to find word on page including inside tags

Question

Thanks to Chetan Sastry I have this Regex code to parse my page for a list of words and add the TM to them.

var wordList = [\"jQuery UI\", \"jQuery\", \"is\"];
v         


        

Answer 1

J-P linked to some good utilities for the job.

With straight jQuery:

$elem
  .contents()
  .filter(function() {
    return this.nodeType == Node.TEXT_NODE;
  })
  .each(function(){
    $(this).text($(this).text().replace(regExp, "$&™"));
  });
