RegExp Object Subpatterns
In javascript, when you call the match method, the RegExp object will hold onto the sub patterns so you can reference them after a match.
var str = ‘http://www.website.com/webpage.html’; if (str.match( ‘([a-z]+.com)’ )) { alert( RegExp.$1 ); } Alerts: ‘website.com’; I learned about this from analyzing the iepnghack.htc code written by Aaron Porter.
