Jquery Replacing Space In String With Html Tag

I want to replace spaces in a string with a html
tag, whats the best way of doing this?. Currently I have this code which replaces the spaces with a '-'. $('.msn').ea

Solution 1:

$(".msn").html(function(i, oldHTML) {
    return oldHTML.replace(/ /g, '<br/>');
});

Solution 2:

Try using .html() instead of .text():

$(".msn").each(function() {
    $(this).html($(this).html().replace(/ /g, '<br />'));
});
