Returns the last matched characters from any regular expression search. Read-only.
SyntaxRegExp.lastMatch
Examples
The following example illustrates the use of the lastMatch property:
var re = new RegExp("d(b+)(d)","ig");
var str = "cdbBdbsbdbdz";
var arr = re.exec(str);
var s = ""
s += ": " + RegExp. + "<br />";
s += ": " + RegExp. + "<br />";
s += ": " + RegExp. + "<br />";
s += "input: " + RegExp.input + "<br />";
s += "lastMatch: " + RegExp.lastMatch + "<br />";
s += "leftContext: " + RegExp.leftContext + "<br />";
s += "rightContext: " + RegExp.rightContext + "<br />";
s += "lastParen: " + RegExp.lastParen + "<br />";
document.write(s);
Remarks
The object associated with this property is always the global RegExp object.
The initial value of the lastMatch property is an empty string. The value of the lastMatch property changes whenever a successful match is made.
