Question

I’m using this plugin

http://harvesthq.github.com/chosen/

and I have an specific problem when I search some options with blanks.
for example I have an option tha is “Antigua y barbuda”
if I type :

1. Antigua y barbuda -> ok
2. Antigua y -> ok
3. barbuda -> ok
4. y -> ok
5. y barbuda -> fail

it only fails when I start writing not the first word (only in cases that has blanks)

Regex:

regex = new RegExp(regexAnchor + searchText.replace(/[-[\]{}()*+?.,\\^$|#\s]/g, "\\$&"), 'i');
zregex = new RegExp(searchText.replace(/[-[\]{}()*+?.,\\^$|#\s]/g, "\\$&"), 'i');

Answer 1

Solved it removing “\s”

zregex = new RegExp(searchText.replace(/[-[\]{}()*+?.,\\^$|#]/g, "\\$&"), 'i');
