This will serve you : val.replace(/\s/g, "x") where x is your character. Below is the sample:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title></title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
    <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Test" OnClientClick="return test()" />
    <br />
    </form>
    <script type="text/javascript">

        function test() {
            var txtBox1 = document.getElementById('<%= TextBox1.ClientID %>');
            var val = txtBox1.value;
            var replacedValue = val.replace(/\s/g, "X");
            alert(replacedValue);
            return false;
        }
    
    </script>
</body>
</html>
