I want to remove all special characters except space from a string using JavaScript.

For example, abc's test#s should output as abcs tests.

search all not (word characters || space):

str.replace(/[^\w ]/, '')

Try to use this one

var result= stringToReplace.replace(/[^\w\s]/g, '')

[^] is for negation, \w for [a-zA-Z0-9_] word characters and \s for space, /[]/g for global

const str = "abc's@thy#^g&test#s";
console.log(str.replace(/[^a-zA-Z ]/g, ""));

With regular expression

let string  = "!#This tool removes $special *characters* /other/ than! digits, characters and spaces!!!$";

var NewString= string.replace(/[^\w\s]/gi, '');
console.log(NewString);

Result //This tool removes special characters other than digits characters and spaces

Try this:

const strippedString = htmlString.replace(/(<([^>]+)>)/gi, "");
console.log(strippedString);

console.log(replaceString.match(/(?<=->).*?(?=<-)/g));
