Forloop plugin by ibnishak.github.io

[Bala Chandra]

It replaces only the first instance of the forvar .. So i tried to modify the code of $:/plugins/tesseract/forloop/forloop.js  (https://ibnishak.github.io/Tesseract/pluginsandmacros/index.html#Simple%20for-loop%20macro)

        for (; i <= max; i += iter) {
            textBuffer.push(text.replace(forvar, i));
        }

to

        for (; i <= max; i += iter) {
            textBuffer.push(text.replace(/forvar/gi, i));
        }

However, even then the code doesnt do a global replace ... any ideas?

you need to do it like this:

var re = new RegExp(forvar, 'g');
for (; i <= max; i += iter) {
       textBuffer.push(text.replace(re, i));
}

all the best BJ
