How to remove the first character of link (anchor text) in JavaScript?
Here, we have set “Aabout_us” and “Hhome_page” with incorrectly spellings as anchor text.
You can use substring(1) along with innerHTML to remove the first character and display them correctly as “about_us” and “home_page” respectively.
Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initialscale=1.0">
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/themes/base/jquery-ui.css">
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.12.4.js"></script>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.1/jquery-ui.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/fontawesome/

</head>
<body>
<div class="linkDemo">
<div>
<a href="">Aabout_us</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="linkDemo">
<div>
<a href="">Hhome_page</a>
</div>
</div>
<script>
[...document.querySelectorAll('.linkDemo div a')].forEach(obj=>
obj.innerHTML=obj.innerHTML.substring(1))
</script>
</body>
