In this tutorial we will create a Strip a Character From a Certain String using JavaScript. This code will automatically remove a character from the string when user click the button. The code use onclick() to call a function that string/remove a string from a certain position within the string using dot notation replace() with a pattern of a RegExp for accurate result. You can apply this script to your code to make your transaction faster, it is a user-friendly program feel free to modify it.

We will use JavaScript to add some new feature to the website interface by actually written into an HTML page. It is what gives your page a different interactive elements and animation that engage a user.
