How can I store text between 2 characters?

I’d like to get all the text between brackets from (123)(456)(789) and make it 123,456,789 by using executescripts_sandbox

  1. don’t use “executescripts_sandbox.” as it provides limited functionality. “executescripts” is the better choice

  2. I would use a javascript replace function:
    Replace all ‘(’ with ‘’ empty
    Replace all ‘)’ with ‘’ empty
    Replace all ‘)(’ with ‘,’

OK in this case I still would use ExecuteScript but inside of your JavaScript call use a regular Expression (regex) together with the replace function (you need to google it).
regex is for me not a very intuitive language and I still have my difficulties to get it together. But with googling examples I usually get my way around.
