Replacing , with :: on more than 3 choices

Question

Ran into a quandary. Can you help?The Javascript is only concatenating the first few (3 to be exact) selections with "::" for multiple different fields. When more than 3 items are selected, there is no “::” only “,”Example: Three or less selected:PERFECT: City of Fishers::Community Physician Network::Community Physician Network - All::CPN Providers	NOT PERFECT (MORE THAN 3 SELECTED): ACO, Ambulatory Pharmacy, Analytics Associate Feedback, Infusion, Inpatient, Inpatient Psych - FairbanksHere is my code - any thoughts/what can I do to update this to capture more than 3 selections?:Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/var string = '${q://QID5/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}';var new1=string.replace(/\s*,\s*/g, ",");var replacestring= new1.replace(/,/g , '::');console.log(replacestring)console.log(new1)Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( 'Role', replacestring );});Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/var string = '${q://QID50/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}';var new1=string.replace(/\s*,\s*/g, ",");var replacestring= new1.replace(/,/g , '::');console.log(replacestring)console.log(new1)Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( 'Product Line', replacestring );});Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/var string = '${q://QID62/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}';var new1=string.replace(/\s*,\s*/g, ",");var replacestring= new1.replace(/,/g , '::');console.log(replacestring)console.log(new1)Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( 'Specialty/Region', replacestring );});Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.addOnload(function(){/*Place your JavaScript here to run when the page loads*/var string = '${q://QID53/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}';var new1=string.replace(/\s*,\s*/g, ",");var replacestring= new1.replace(/,/g , '::');console.log(replacestring)console.log(new1)Qualtrics.SurveyEngine.setEmbeddedData( 'Sub-Specialty/Sub-Region', replacestring );});

Disregard this post! I identified the issue. The replace string does not work if an option is “ ’s” is selected - such as “Women’s”. So this really isn’t a numbers issue, but a “ ‘s” issue. I eliminatedthe ‘s - and the code worked!

See example of what I am seeing.First is “good” - but only up to 3 - second is “bad”.How can I expand the first example to contain/work on more than 3?
