title: Matching a Forward Slash with a regex
body: <p>I don't have much experience with JavaScript but i'm trying to create a tag system which, instead of using <code>@</code> or <code>#</code>, would use <code>/</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>var start = /#/ig; // @ Match
  
  var word = /#(\w+)/ig; //@abc Match
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How could I use a <code>/</code> instead of the <code>#</code>. I've tried doing <code>var slash = '/'</code> and adding <code>+ slash +</code>, but that failed.</p>
