to elaborate a bit, you could store the result of that line in a
variable and then use it.
I'd do the replace a bit differently.
var n = $('#pageCount').text().replace(/[)(]/g,'');
or use .match instead:
var n = $('#pageCount').text().match(/\d+/)[0]
Now you can do something with n.

I have a simple span element with the id of pageCount, which has a

pointers?
