JavaScript special characters/regular expressions
<p>I'm trying to learn from reading Mozilla documentation for regular expressions, but there's one thing I don't get. For the special character <code>\s</code> it gives the following example</p>

<p>/\s\w*/ matches ' bar' in "foo bar."</p>

<p>I understand that \s is the special character for white space, but why is there a w* in the example?</p>

<p>doesn't <code>/\s/</code> also match ' bar' in "foo bar."?</p>

<p>What's with the <code>w*</code>?</p>
