//从字符串'Is this a cat is'中剪去'is':
var str='Is this a cat is';
var subStr=new RegExp('is');//创建正则表达式对象
var result=str.replace(subStr,"");//把'is'替换为空字符串
console.log(result);//Is th a cat is
var subStr=new RegExp('is','i');//创建正则表达式对象,不区分大小写
var result=str.replace(subStr,"");//把'is'替换为空字符串
console.log(result);//this a cat is
var subStr=new RegExp('is','ig');//创建正则表达式对象,不区分大小写,全局查找
var result=str.replace(subStr,"");//把'is'替换为空字符串
console.log(result);//th a cat
var subStr=/is/ig;//直接量法创建正则表达式对象,不区分大小写,全局查找
var result=str.replace(subStr,"");//把'is'替换为空字符串
console.log(result);//th a cat
console.log(str);//Is this a cat is 可见replace并不改变原始str
