我正在用HTML和JavaScript设计一个正则表达式测试器。用户将输入一个正则表达式，一个字符串，并通过单选按钮选择他们想要测试的函数(例如搜索，匹配，替换等)，当该函数以指定的参数运行时，程序将显示结果。自然会有额外的文本框用于替换额外的参数等等。
My problem is getting the string from the user and turning it into a regular expression. If I say that they don't need to have //'s around the regex they enter, then they can't set flags, like g and i. So they have to have the //'s around the expression, but how can I convert that string to a regex? It can't be a literal since its a string, and I can't pass it to the RegExp constructor since its not a string without the //'s. Is there any other way to make a user input string into a regex? Will I have to parse the string and flags of the regex with the //'s then construct it another way? Should I have them enter a string, and then enter the flags separately?
