Removing tabs and newlines with regular expressions issue - regex

Question

Regex: remove TAB \t tab var regex = /\s[A-Za-z]+/g do not work
selectFirstEmptyRow function () {
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl ("https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/---ID-----edit#gid=395019283");
var date = Utilities.formatDate(new Date() ss.getSpreadsheetTimeZone(), "d" + "- 0" + "M" + "-" + "y");
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName(date);
var regex = /[^0-9]*/g; // extract the string before digital channel
var doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument().getText()
var result = RegExp.exec(doc);
// * Extract white \ s match any white space character [\ r \ n \ t \ f]
var regex = /\s[A-Za-z]+/g; // extract the spaces in front of and behind "Name Surname"
RegExp.exec var result = (result);
sheet.setActiveSelection(sheet getRange ("B" + getFirstEmptyRowWholeRow())).setValue(result);
Logger.log(result.getText);
I can not remove a tab \t and newlines \n with the syntax
var regex = /\s[A-Za-z]+/g;
There remains a line preceding the string "Name Surname" when I insert it into the Spreadsheet.
After analysis it appears that the concerns are the tabs \t, it is not deleted.
I try to extract from a "text document" a string (which is always at the top of the document until the first numerical chain) and put in a "spreadsheet document 'Spreadsheet at the site of the first box vacuum column "B".
The handling of this string in the same "text document" did not cause me any problem for the update of age with the syntax
var regex = /[^0-9]*/g; // extract the string before a digit
The string from the document:
var str = '\n\n\n\Surname NAME\n34 Years\n\n......... .. "
Here is the complete script:

As per Using regular expressions to search for data in your spreadsheet, you can match any newline and tab using [\t\r\n] pattern. Since you have more than one at a stretch, you should add a quantificator +. Also, since you are looking to capture 2 lines, you should add the [\t\r\n]+ to the pattern, too.
This will let you capture the 2 lines with Name and Age in between the newlines:
[\r\n\t]+(.+[\r\n\t]+.+)[\t\r\n]+
And you can later remove the newline characters:
var result = str.replace(/[\r\n\t]+(.+[\r\n\t]+.+)[\t\r\n]+/, '$1');
Here is what it looks like on regex101.com.
alert("'" + "\n\t\n\nNew line\n\t\nSecond 34 line\n\t\n....".replace(/[\r\n\t]+(.+[\r\n\t]+.+)[\t\r\n]+/, '$1') + "'")
