String.replace function on Firefox version 62 ( actually the regression may introduce from version55) has wired behavior.

The case like this: 

// When invoke function of String.replace twice, but it seems only work once.

var test='abc/abc/c'.replace('', './resources/js/').replace('', './resources/js/'); console.log(test)   // it output will "./resources/js/abc/abc/c"

A little change on content of the string from 'abc/abc/c' to 'abc/abc', the output will append twice. 

var test='abc/abc'.replace('', './resources/js/').replace('', './resources/js/'); console.log(test)
./resources/js/./resources/js/abc/abc

Or I change the replacement string to "xy" 

var test='abc/abc/cc'.replace('', 'xy').replace('', 'xy'); console.log(test)
// it will append twice, xyxyabc/abc/cc

I just to update the firefox version and try the expression.

ar test='abc/abc/c'.replace(, './resources/js/').replace(, './resources/js/'); console.log(test) ; ./resources/js/abc/abc/c

The problem is still there.

Best Wishes, Yaguang

Shoving code at me does not make me understand the issue.

I do not know if using '' as a string will always work.

I would personally use a RegExp replace to add the string at the start in this case. 

var test='abc/abc/c'.replace(/(.+)/, './resources/js/$1');
console.log(test);

Thanks for your reply so quickly and the actually I fixed it by regular expression as you mentioned. But I found that the behavior of the function String.replace(searchvalue, newvalue) is not consistent.

When the searchvalue string is empty , it String.replace will insert the newvalue string in the begin of the origin string

The following statement works as we expected. var result = 'abc/abc/c'.replace(, './resources/js/') ; 

// result will equal to "./resources/js/abc/abc/c";

but I do replace twice, it seems only it replace once. var result='abc/abc/c'.replace(, './resources/js/').replace(, './resources/js/'); 

// result still equals to "./resources/js/abc/abc/c";
