#7718 — Replace in String

Hello,

I have the following:

  var original = "<span>name at email dot com</span>"
  var at = "at";
  var dot = "dot";

  email = original.text().replace(new RegExp(' ' + at + ' ', 'gi'), '@').replace(new RegExp(' ' + dot + ' ', 'gi'), '.');

  I need to find the at and dot var values in original and replace by @ and .

  And I need to be case insensitive. So could be AT.
  Or any other thing like var at = "ATE".

  My Regex expression is not replacing anything.

  What am I doing wrong?

Thank You,
Miguel

If you look at the error console, you should see something like 
"original.text is not a function" there.

If you remove the part ".text()", the value of email becomes 
"name@email.com".
