mylabel text  -123456    var string    mylabel text   replace  -          if you have done it that way variable string now holds  123456   you can also  i guess the better way  do this      mylabel text  -123456     mylabel text function i v      return v replace  -

mylabel text   mylabel text   replace  -            Since text   gets the value  and text   someValue    sets the value  you just place one inside the other   Would be the equivalent of doing   var newValue    mylabel text   replace  -         mylabel text  newValue        EDIT   I hope I understood the question correctly  I m assuming  mylabel is referencing a DOM element in a jQuery object  and the string is in the content of the element   If the string is in some other variable not part of the DOM  then you would likely want to call the  replace   function against that variable before you insert it into the DOM   Like this   var someVariable    -123456    mylabel text  someVariable replace  -            or a more verbose version   var someVariable    -123456   someVariable   someVariable replace  -         mylabel text  someVariable
