Bug? Rejected regexp

[chrisjj]

I'm getting this error:



on code that's fine on the same JS engine in Chrome:



An ideas?

I believe BRU uses an older version of JS...

Did you try the function :

regEx("text", "match", "replace")
Applies a regular expression replacement on the given text.

(My code is

line = "Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2025 15:30:00 +0000"
g = line.match(/^(?<n>Date.)?.*$/).groups; // Syntax errorhttps://i.imgur.com/ryJ3sFn.png

Thanks. Then perhaps correct Help JavaScript Renaming "Bulk Rename Utility uses the V8 Javascript, Google's high performance Javascript engine also used in Google Chrome".

No, because it does not return groups.

Perhaps regex V2 will work. How do I access that from JS, please?

[Admin]

Yes, it should be \\s (escaped to match a space zero or more characters). I have logged this to be fixed.

This reply seems to be in error.

Can you tell me how to access regex V2 from JS? Thanks.
