RegExp()
Syntax
var variable = new RegExp(pattern, flags)
The RegExp() object represents a regular expression that is used for pattern matching.
The creation of the object takes pattern and flags parameters.
The pattern is a valid regular expression. The flags are either or both g (global) and i (ignore case).
Properties and Methods of the RegExp() Object
Property/Method Description RegExp.$* Represents multiline RegExp.$& Represents lastmatch RegExp.$_ Represents input RegExp.$` Represents leftContext RegExp.$" Represents rightContext RegExp.$+ Represents lastParen RegExp.$1,$2,...$9 Represents substring of matches compile() Compiles a regular expression exec() Executes the search for a match in a specified string global _Specifies whether to check the expressions against all possible matches ignoreCase Whether case is ignored or not during a string search input String that is matched lastIndex _Specifies the index at which to start matching the next string. lastMatch Last matched characters lastParen The last parenthesized substring match leftContext The substring preceding the most recent match multiline Specifies whether to search on multiple lines rightContext The substring following the most recent match source The string pattern test() Tests for a string match
RegExp,$* (1)
The RegExp,$* property reflects a multiline string search.
This is a Boolean, read-only value that reflects whether or not strings should be searched across multiple lines.
This is the same as using the multiline property.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function getinfo(){
var myPat = new RegExp("the", "i");
var str = document.form1.mytext.value;
myArray = myPat.exec(str);
alert("RegExp.$* is: " + RegExp.multiline);
}
-->
</script>
<form name="form1">
<textarea name="mytext" cols="60" rows="8" onChange="getinfo()">
Change me and click outside to see the result.
</textarea>
<br>
</form>
</body>
</html>
RegExp.$1,$2,..$9
The RegExp.$1,$2,..$9 property represents parenthesized substring matches.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript1.2">
<!--
function swap(){
re = /(\w+)\D(\w+)/;
str = document.form1.text1.value;
newstr=str.replace(re, "$2, $1");
document.form1.text2.value = newstr;
}
-->
</script>
<form name="form1">
Enter your 7 digit phone number in the form xxx-xxxx
<br><br><br>
Phone Number (7 digits):<input type="text" name="text1" size=10>
<br><br>
<input type="button" value="Swap" onClick="swap()">
<br><br><br>
Output: <input type="text" name="text2" size=10
</form>
</body>
</html>
RegExp.$& (2)
The RegExp.$& property represents the last matched characters.
This is the same as using the lastMatch property.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
var pat = new RegExp("test", "gi");
str = "This is a test 123435";
myArray = pat.exec(str);
document.write("Pattern found: " + myArray[0] + ". the last match expression is: " + RegExp.lastMatch);
-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
RegExp,$_ (3)
The RegExp,$_ property represents the input to which a string is matched.
This is the same as using the input property.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function getinput(){
var myPat = new RegExp("the", "i");
var str = document.form1.mytext.value;
myArray = myPat.exec(str);
alert("The RegExp.input is: " + RegExp.input);
}
-->
</script>

</body>
</html>
RegExp.$` (4)

This is the same as using the leftContext property.
<html>
<body>

myArray = pat.exec(str);
document.write("In the string: " + "<b>");
document.write("I know where the fish is tonight" + "</b><br><br>");
document.write("The RegExp.leftContext is: " + RegExp.leftContext);
-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
RegExp.$" (5)
The RegExp.$" property represents the substring following the most pattern match.
This is the same as using the rightContext property.
<html>
<body>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--

myArray = pat.exec(str);
document.write("The RegExp.rightContext is: " + RegExp.rightContext);
-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
RegExp.$+ (6)
