使用JavaScript在字符串数组中进行通配符搜索（？，*）

Question

I am trying to achieve wild card search on a string array using java script Here the wild cards i use are ? -to represent single char and * to represent multiple char

here is my string array

var sample = new Array();
sample[0] = 'abstract';
sample[1] = 'cabinet';
sample[2] = 'computer';

For example i searched for a string 'ab*t' in the array and the regular expression I used for this is '\\ab.*t\\', but the problem is I get both 'abstract' and 'cabinet' as matching strings. I only want the string that starts with 'ab' and not where it comes in the middle.

So I modified my regexp like this '\\^ab.*t$\\ but still the same result. So can somebody give me some tips on how this can be achieved.

您正在使用错误的错误斜杠，应该使用正斜杠（'/'）而不是反斜杠（'\\'），这可能会帮助您/^ab.*t$/
