Cool, although i don't think this will replace http://regexpal.com/ as my favourite regex tester.

I used to use regexpal, till i discovered this: http://gskinner.com/RegExr/, i'm using it for months without any problems.

I made this to test my regex skills: http://wubwub.nl/stufff/regex.php

Bug: line 125 of application.js should read

if (index !== -1) value = value.slice(index + length);

Very cool, but the most useful thing to me about Rubular (which this is inspired by) was the quick reference. Considering the results you get for a google search on "JavaScript Regex", a nice simple table with the basic syntax (and methods) would be very valuable. After that, the fact I can test expressions on the page is just gravy. I can test expressions on any page in the world with Dev Tools.

Something like that? http://www.xul.fr/javascript/regular-expression-tester.php

That's cool - a reference would be good as well. I've always used RegExr[1] which combines such documentation really neatly.
