<p>Diese Seite listet die Features JavaScriptes auf, die veraltet sind( das bedeutet, dass noch benutzbar, aber Entfernung geplant) und abgeschafft sind( das bedeutet: nicht länger benutzbar).</p>

<h2 id="Veraltete_Features">Veraltete Features</h2>

<p>Diese veralteten Features können noch benutzt werden, aber sollten mit Vorsicht benutzt werden, da erwartet wird, dass sie in Futura endgültig abgeschafft werden. Man sollte daran arbeiten, sie von seinem Code zu entfernen.</p>

<h3 id="RegExp-Eigenschaften">RegExp-Eigenschaften</h3>

<p>The following properties are deprecated. This does not affect their use in {{jsxref("String.replace", "replacement strings", "", 1)}}:</p>
