What does the error 'delimiter must not alphanumeric backslash' mean? Pages that link to <a href="https://ozoneasylum.com/backlink?for=5770" title="Pages that link to What does the error &amp;#039;delimiter  must  not  alphanumeric  backslash&amp;#039; mean?" rel="nofollow" >What does the error &#039;delimiter  must  not  alphanumeric  backslash&#039; mean?\

It basically means that you need to wrap your regular expression in delimtters (e.g. backslashes) so:

code:
(hat|monkey|bag)



becomes:

code:
/(hat|monkey|bag)/
