Javascript regExp - find brackets

Question

I can't figure out how to search for a string containing something like "[1]", for some reason this doesn't work: ``` var regExp = '/$$[1-9]$$/'; var search = string.search(regExp); // returns -1 ``` I've searched all over for a solution but can't find anything...

Accepted Answer

Try it without the `'`

```
var regExp = /$$[1-9]$$/;
var search = string.search(regExp);
```
