[javascript] Javascript split regex question

hello I am trying what I thought would be a rather easy regex in Javascript but is giving me lots of trouble. I want the ability to split a date via javascript splitting either by a '-','.','/' and ' '.

var date = "02-25-2010";
var myregexp2 = new RegExp("-."); 
dateArray = date.split(myregexp2);

What is the correct regex for this any and all help would be great.

or just (anything but numbers):

date.split(/\D/);

you could just use

date.split(/-/);

or

date.split('-');

or just use for date strings 2015-05-20 or 2015.05.20

date.split(/\.|-/);

Say your string is:

let str = `word1
word2;word3,word4,word5;word7
word8,word9;word10`;

You want to split the string by the following delimiters:

• Colon
• Semicolon
• New line

You could split the string like this:

let rawElements = str.split(new RegExp('[,;\n]', 'g'));

Finally, you may need to trim the elements in the array:

let elements = rawElements.map(element => element.trim());

try this instead

date.split(/\W+/)

Then split it on anything but numbers:

date.split(/[^0-9]/);
