Tell us what’s happening:
I edited the code and it seems to be correct. I even compared with solved helps but it keeps saying SyntaxError: invalid regular expression flag s.

Your code so far


var myStr = '<a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">Link</a>';

Hi there,
I checked this, your code is correct.
you can also check regular expressions here https://regexr.com/

The test is still not progressing. In the link you gave it said that the forward slash is not escaped. What can I do about it?

mine is identical to yours var myStr = '<a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">Link</a>';
perhaps the issue is an extension on your browsers.
FCC is not compatible with some of chrome extensions.

It works fine for me.

I’d try one of these:

  1. clear your browser cache

  2. restart your browser

  3. use incognito mode

  4. restart your computer

Thanks! I changed the browser to Chrome and it worked.

I am having the same problem on Firefox but I really don’t want to use Chrome, is there another way to solve this problem?

I would try updating your Firefox.
