I am a Javascript Junkie and wishing to test around some codes.

new RegExp("user=" + un + "[\"'\\s>]", "i")

what will this actually mean?

It was from a site, and it actually works!

I especially don’t get the [\"'\\s>] part.

    [ and ] signify a character class. Basically, it will match one of any characters found within. The backslash \ escapes special characters. So you’ll see that the first double-quote is escaped, showing we’re looking for the " char within the value, and not merely using the " within our regular expression to wrap around a value. Then the single-quote ' is considered, followed by a backslash (literal – so it too must be escaped \\ looks for one backslash). It appears the original was indicating a space, which is \s. And then the greater-than symbol.
