remove '?' from a string

31
I have a string value in a javascript function , as ' var a=abcd?' . I want to remove the '?' char which is at the end of the string. I tried with a.replace(/?/g,''); but it gives a error when loading the page. how can i do this.

you have to escape the question mark since it is a quantifier for the regExp and you need it to be treated as a character:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. a.replace(/\?/g,'')
