I have a string containing external url links like
.listView a.toggle::after { content: " "; background: url("/test/images/up_small.svg") center center no-repeat; }
I want to grab the text between the url tags like
/test/images/up_small.svg
I tried like
a.split(new RegExp("[^(url)\(\".*\"]"))
but it did not work.
How can I get the external url and if needed replace the same with something else? in JavaScript
You can search using this regex with 2 capture groups:
(.* url\(")[^"]+(".*)
And replace using $1http://example.com$2 where http://example.com is replacement.
Code:
var s = '.listView a.toggle::after { content: " "; background: url("/test/images/up_small.svg") center center no-repeat; }';
var r = s.replace(/(.* url\(")[^"]+(".*)/, '$1http://example.com$2');
console.log(r);
