Javascript RegExp for splitting text into sentences and keeping the delimiter

Question

I am trying to use javascript\'s split to get the sentences out of a string but keep the delimiter eg !?.

So far I have

sentences = text.split(/[\\\         


        

Answer 1

Try this instead:-

sentences = text.split(/[\\.!\?]/);

? is a special char in regular expressions so need to be escaped.

Sorry I miss read your question - if you want to keep delimiters then you need to use match not split see this question
