Hi all,

I'm trying to use regular expressions with the String.replace() method to manipulate a string to replace all instances of a forward slash "/" with a period "."

So for instance, if I start with this String:
"things/stuff/cheese/yum"

I want to convert it to:
"things.stuff.cheese.yum"

Easy enough if I want to replace a letter... let's say I wanted to replace all instances of the letter "e", I would do this:

Code:
var str:String = "things/stuff/cheese/yum";
var myPattern:RegExp = /e/g;  
trace(str.replace(myPattern, "."));
// returns: "things/stuff/ch..s./yum"
... but how do I replace all instances of "/"??

Thanks!
