Ah, sorry to be confusing. The notation /\W/g
is a regular expression literal. Regular expressions are a very powerful feature of JavaScript (and other languages). They are a bit obtuse, but a single function call using a regular expression can often replace many lines of code, and process more quickly. If you want, you can read all about regular expressions in detail at: <http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Core_JavaScript_1.5_Guide:Regular_ Expressions> Specifically, the expression above says, "match any non-word character multiple times." The forward slashes delimit the regular expression literal, in the same way that quotes delimit string literals. The '\W' character is a special notation for "non-word character." (The backslash denotes an escape code, like '\t' for a tab.) The 'g' at the end is a modifier flag that tells the regular expression to perform multiple (or "global") matches instead of just matching the first occurrence.
