I'm trying to use the stuff() method to search and replace text.
Here is my function:
function replace_onServerClick()
{
oldtext = this.form.oldtext.value;
newtext  = this.form.newtext.value;
thetext = this.form.text1.text;
var tulos = new StringEx(thetext);
textlength=newtext.length;
n = tulos.indexOf(oldtext);
while ((n = result.indexOf(oldtext)) >= 0 ) ���
  {
   result.string = result.stuff(n, textlength, newtext);
   }

this.form.text1.text = result.string;

}

It doesn't work. It is just like the example in the manual. (It didn't work
either).
