Meaning of javascript text between two slashes

javascript

Solution

It is the regular expression literal.

From w3schools:

var patt=new RegExp(pattern,modifiers);

or more simply:

var patt=/pattern/modifiers;

And from MDN:

RegExp(pattern [, flags])

/pattern/flags

Problem

On Dreamweaver if I write on a Javascript document some text between two slashes like ``` <script type="text/javascript"> /text/ </script> ``` it becomes green. What it the meaning of this text? This is not a comment, neither "HTML text". Thank you
