javascript - RegExp stumper, should be simple -
i'm regexp, 1 has me stumped. here's javascript snippet:
var justdateregex = '\d+/\d+/\d+'; var datestr = $('#dropdown').find(':selected').text(); var onlydate = datestr.match(justdateregex); console.log('regex: ' + justdateregex + ' datestr: ' + datestr + ' onlydate: ' + onlydate);
here's output console.log
regex: d+/d+/d+ datestr: 11/23/2013 12:00:00 onlydate: null
i expect onlydate read: 11/23/2013, null. ideas why?
string.match()
expects parameter regexp object, not string.
var justdateregex = /\d+\/\d+\/\d+/; var datestr = $('#dropdown').find(':selected').text(); var onlydate = datestr.match(justdateregex);
