title: Why is Javascript RegExp test giving "false" for a unicode value of this character?
body: <p>I need to get rid of "↵" characters from the string, but I get some strange behavior from RegExp. Can someone explain this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>var str = "↵Since we are starting our webservice...";
  
  alert(str.charAt(0))
  alert(str.charCodeAt(0));
  
  alert(/\u8629/.test("↵"));
  </code></pre>

  <p>String object methods tell me unicode code for "↵" is 8629, but RegExp says that's not the case.</p>
