I want to me able to replace all {{text}} occurrences by OOOOO.

This code works except the replacement.

Could you please help me with that ?

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
    var a = $("html").html().match(new RegExp("\{\{[^{}]+\}\}", "g"));
    for (i = 0; i < a.length; ++i) {
        $("html").html().replace(a[i], 'OOOOO');
    }
</script>
</html>

    I think this qualifies for Tony the Pony! You generally shouldn't parse the entire document with a regex. – adeneo Dec 15 '14 at 21:07

Agreed you probably shouldn't do the entire document. Maybe use jQuery('p') or similar.

Use .html( new html that you want ) to write the html.

Something like 

$('p').each(function( i, p) { 
       var $p = $(p); 
       $p.html( $p.html().replace(/some regex/, 'replacement')); 
});

You can do this, which i think simpler, do what ever you want with the elements

$(function() {
    var html = $('html').html();
    $('p').html(html.replace(/{{text}}/gi, '<i>000000</i>'));
}
