// String format
var str = 'new_test_id';
```

when using replacing part of function do not not use the following as replacement otherwise it will be ignored automatically.

```javascript

stripchar.RSExceptAlpha('new@test@id@99', 'null'); // return false

stripchar.RSExceptAlpha('new@test@id@99', 'undefined'); // return false
```

## Run Test:
