I have a variable called html thats created on document load with jquery and XML, I want to search that variable for a string, and replace it with another.
ie html = '<td>UP</td><td>DOWN</td><td>UP</td><td>UP</td><td>DOWN</ td><td>UP</td>' I then basically want to do: html.find("<td>UP</td>").replaceWith("<td><img...></td>") It does not need to be recursive, but can be. If recursive, will get used before the var is dumped to a div. If not will get used in the loop and change the html var as created and wont matter. Either way, as long as it works. I tried several things, but kept getting this error: uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: > Please help!
