How to strip extra tabs in my JS editor?

Hi!

I need a code that will allow only 5 tabs in a row and all other consecutive tabs after that should be stripped.

This is a sample code from the JS editor:

Code:

text = text.replace(/^[ \t]+$/mg,"");

I hope it makes sense. Thank you.

Something like this should work

Code:

text = text.replace(/\t{5}/m, "");

In an effort to keep things organized, you have the option to set a thread to resolved when an issue is fixed. To make the status of the thread resolved:
1. Go to your first post
2. Edit your first post
3. Click "Go Advanced"
4. In the dropdown next to the title, select "RESOLVED"
