HTML METHODS - replaceAll()

The replaceAll() method in JQuery is used to replace HTML elements with new HTML elements.

Example :

<html>
    <head>
    	<title> My First Programme </title>
  	</head>

	<style>
    	div {
        	background-color: violet;
        }
    </style>

  	<body>
    	<h1> JQuery </h1>
    	<p>New Code</p>
    	
    	<button> Click Here </button>
    	
      	<script src = "https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/JQUERY/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"> </script>
	  
      	<script>
      
      		$('button').click( function() {
				$("<div>Hello World</div>").replaceAll('p');
			});
			
      	</script>      
   </body>
</html>

Output :

So, in the above code, we have a <p> element,

<p>New Code</p>

And we are going to replace it with a new <div> element.

<div>Hello World</div>

And we have achieved it using the JQuery statement,

$('button').click( function() {
	$("<div>Hello World</div>").replaceAll('p');
});

All we are doing is, using the replaceAll() method on the <p> element, to replace the <p> element with the <div> element.

$("<div>Hello World</div>").replaceAll('p');

And we got the <p> element replaced with the <div> element violet in color.

And why is the color violet?

Because we have set the style property for <div> element.

<style>
	div {
		background-color: violet;
	}
</style>
