I am trying to write a tool whereby you enter incorrectly formatted CSS into one text area, hit submit and it runs a few regular expressions and feeds back the minified and "maxified" CSS in 2 other textareas. First it removes all white space (that is, unless it is within a line - only white space at the end of a line and tabs within a line is removed). It then proceeds to fall over on the next line - reg = new RegExp("\*\/", "\g");. The error is Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: /*//: Nothing to repeat. I can't figure out why this is. Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.
If you want */ use reg = /\*\//g; and if you want /* use reg = /\/\*/g;.

I have written a regular expression which matches all header HTML elements, including their text. The present regular expression I am using is: /<(h[1-6])[^>]*>(.*?)<\/\1>/gi.
I want to match all headings and text until testing-options appears in the string below:
<h1>jfhfnjkgf</h1><h2>fegsg</h2><h2>fwegrweghrw</h2><h4>sfadfsaf</h4><h4>ukfdsnsjkfsd</h4><ac:structured-macro ac:name="testing-options" ac:schema-version="1" data-layout="default" ac:local-id="8bbfe293-eeb9-4785-9873-9fb9b218692b" ac:macro-id="bed737bbfaaf5f1df5f68a0ecc0bc6a7"><ac:parameter ac:name="enable-testing">disable</ac:parameter></ac:structured-macro><h3>bkbkvwv</h3><h4>vbdkhvbkwv</h4><h3>v n vw bv</h3><p />
The final regex provided should match every heading and text until testing options appears in the string above. In this case, the match should be: <h1>jfhfnjkgf</h1><h2>fegsg</h2><h2>fwegrweghrw</h2><h4>sfadfsaf</h4><h4>ukfdsnsjkfsd</h4>.
Use the following Regex without global flag
(<h[1-6]>\w+<\/h[1-6]>)*

I have a requirement to allow any digits with only one character (either w or d or W or D) at a time with no sequence.
For example: 2 or 2w or 222W or 2d or 222D
(not like 2wd, 55dw, 2w5d, 2w5w, 2D5D etc)
Could you please provide solution on this. Thanks.
Try the following:
^\d+[wdWD]?$
Try it out:https://regex101.com/r/sYqjTi/1
If you don't want it to match just 2, remove the ?, it will make the last letter required.
This regex should work both on Java and JavaScript.

i have a variable that contains the string: attribute_value[XXX][] where XXX every time that page loads is a 3-digit number that changes every time.
How can i use .replace function in javascript to replace attribute_value[XXX][] with something specific regardless the XXX value?
Thank you in advance
You can use regular expression for that
str.replace(/attribute_value\d+/, 'aa');
here '\d' indicates digits and '+' indicates one or more occurances
str.replace(/attribute_value\d{3}/, 'aa');
Use this if you want to replace only first 3 digits

I want to create a textarea that behaves like the tagging box in Youtube. Specifically:
Allow you to type whatever you want
When you press space it turns the word you just typed into a tag
You can remove tags with backspace or by clicking x on tags
Show suggestions as you type
You can add tags from outside the textarea as well
Also, what exactly is this method called?
I just used a javascript library 2 days ago that does excatly this. Check out the TextExtJs library

In my Indesign document having the text "This is Indesign \napplication"----here \n is the line break.
Then, I am find text in grep
find grep:This is Indesign application
The text cannot be selected. because, the sentence contain line breaks.
So, Please help me to select the sentence.
Thanks & regards by,
Annadurai.
Just an idea: try searching for whitespace between words. This can be done via regular expressions, either with grep or with javascript.
To do this, you have to search for "This\s+is\s+Indesign\s+application". Each "\s+" means: one or more whitespace characters (blanks, newlines, tabs). Code snippet for javascript:
string.search(/This\s+is\s+Indesign\s+application/);
If this does not help, you should provide more information of what you've done so far.
