+<h2 id="Summary">Summary</h2>
+
+<p>The <code><strong>RegExp</strong></code> constructor creates a regular expression object for matching text with a pattern.</p>
+
+<p>For an introduction on what  regular expressions are, read the <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions">Regular Expressions chapter in the JavaScript Guide</a>.</p>
+
+<h2 id="Constructor">Constructor</h2>
+
+<p>Literal and constructor notations are possible:</p>
+
+<pre class="syntaxbox"><code>/<em>pattern</em>/<em>flags;
+</em></code>
+new <code>RegExp(<em>pattern</em> <em>[, flags]</em>)</code>;
+</pre>
+
+<h3 id="Parameters">Parameters</h3>
+
+<dl>
+ <dt><code>pattern</code></dt>
+ <dd>The text of the regular expression.</dd>
+ <dt><code>flags</code></dt>
+ <dd>
+ <p>If specified, flags can have any combination of the following values:</p>
+
+ <dl>
+ <dt><code>g</code></dt>
+ <dd>global match</dd>
+ <dt><code>i</code></dt>
+ <dd>ignore case</dd>
+ <dt><code>m</code></dt>
+ <dd>multiline; treat beginning and end characters (^ and $) as working over multiple lines (i.e., match the beginning or end of <em>each</em> line (delimited by \n or \r), not only the very beginning or end of the whole input string)</dd>
+ <dt><code>y</code></dt>
+ <dd>sticky; matches only from the index indicated by the <code>lastIndex</code> property of this regular expression in the target string (and does not attempt to match from any later indexes).</dd>
+ </dl>
+ </dd>
+</dl>
+
+<h2 id="Description">Description</h2>
+
+<p>There are 2 ways to create a RegExp object: a literal notation and a constructor. To indicate strings, the parameters to the literal notation do not use quotation marks while the parameters to the constructor function do use quotation marks. So the following expressions create the same regular expression:</p>
+
+<pre class="brush: js">/ab+c/i;
+new RegExp("ab+c", "i");
+</pre>
+
+<p>The literal notation provides compilation of the regular expression when the expression is evaluated. Use literal notation when the regular expression will remain constant. For example, if you use literal notation to construct a regular expression used in a loop, the regular expression won't be recompiled on each iteration.</p>
+
+<p>The constructor of the regular expression object, for example, <code>new RegExp("ab+c")</code>, provides runtime compilation of the regular expression. Use the constructor function when you know the regular expression pattern will be changing, or you don't know the pattern and are getting it from another source, such as user input.</p>
+
+<p>When using the constructor function, the normal string escape rules (preceding special characters with \ when included in a string) are necessary. For example, the following are equivalent:</p>
+
+<pre class="brush: js">var re = /\w+/;
+var re = new RegExp("\\w+");
+</pre>

+<p>One can test at run-time whether the sticky flag is supported, using <code>try { … } catch { … }</code>. For this, either an <code>eval(…)</code> expression or the <code>RegExp(<var>regex-string</var>, <var>flags-string</var>)</code> syntax must be used (since the <code>/<var>regex</var>/<var>flags</var></code> notation is processed at compile-time, so throws an exception before the <code>catch</code> block is encountered).

To match characters from other languages such as Cyrillic or Hebrew, use <code>\uhhhh</code>., where "hhhh" is the character's Unicode value in hexadecimal. This example demonstrates how one can separate out Unicode characters from a word.</p>
