Javascript replace url segment with regex

Question

I have this url http://retail.domain.co.uk/view_orders/page/6/10?type=completed

I want to replace 6 with 1. The url segment will be different depending on page, so i can't use a string replace.

var url = location.href.replace(, "1");

the new url should be http://retail.domain.co.uk/view_orders/page/1/10?type=completed

How do i solve this with regex?

Use a captured group to match /page/ that is followed by 1 or more digits:

var str = 'http://retail.domain.co.uk/view_orders/page/6/10?type=completed';

var result = str.replace(/(\/page\/)\d+/, '$11');

You may do like this,

string.replace(/\/\d+\//g, "/1/")
