Replace a character via its ASCII code...

[riahc3]

Hello

I want to remove this:

As you see it is a blank but the regular variable.replace(/\s+/g,''); does not work. I generate this character with Alt+0160 The best way would be its ascii code so how do I do it?

A little digging suggests something like variable.replace(/\xc2\xa0/g, '') as a solution with the way I assume you're handling encodings. You may need to tweak the code a bit as I'm not super hip with Javascript.

taking the plus out would replace all whitespace chars with nothing

variable.replace(/\s/g,"");

if it's not working maybe there's something in the code surrounding this that needs debugging.

How about

str = str.replace(/\u0160/g,"");
