javascript - Find and replace text in label jquery -

i've label ex. : <label id="labelid" class="control-label col-lg-4">some text ()</label>, how can insert text in middle of brakets , after clear it?

i've tried :

$('#labelid').replace("()", "(new)"); 

but not work me

you've text using text() replace using replace() set replaced text label.

jquery solution :

var label_text = $('#labelid').text(); //get text $('#labelid').text( label_text.replace("()", "(new)") ); //replace , set text 

pure js solution :

var label_text = document.getelementbyid('labelid').innertext; //get text document.getelementbyid('labelid').innertext = label_text.replace("()", "(new)"); //replace , set text 

hope helps.

$(function(){    var label_text = $('#labelid').text();      $('#labelid').text( label_text.replace("()", "(new)") );  })
