How would I go about splitting a string by two brackets with regex?

I have been working with Discord.js and Node to a quick bot to look up something. I need a way to find all the occurrences that appear between two square brackers and store them in an array of strings. For now I'm using string-split() with some regex, but I am unsure of the regex to use.
I have tried using a few different ones, including /[^\[\[]+(?=\]\])/g and \[\[(.*?)\]\] - I dont mind having the actual brackets in the results, I can remove them manually with string.replace().
I am also working on a fallback with the normal string.split() and other string functions, not relying on regex, but I'm still curious about a possible regex version.
The result with the first regex is totally incorrect. For example, if I try "does [[this]] work [at all]?" the output is "[[]]" and "[at all]", when it really shouldn't take the "at all", but it shouls show the "[[this]]".
With the second regex I get somewhat closer, it gives back "this"(correct) and "[at all]" (again, it shouldn't take the "at all").
I don't mind having the brackets in the output, I can remove them manually myself, but I need to find all occurrences that are specifically between two brackets.

Try this regex:
\[\[([^[\]]|(?R))*\]\]
What you are trying to do is called Matching Balanced Constructs. More info at the link.
Upon further testing, unfortunately JS does not support (?R) so this becomes far more difficult. You could use the XRegExp.matchRecursive addon from the XRegExp package.
And your expression \[\[(.*?)\]\] should work. Working example below.
var str = 'does [[this]] work [at all] with another double [[here]]?';
var result = str.match(/\[\[(.*?)\]\]/g);
var newDiv = document.createElement("div");
newDiv.innerHTML = result;
document.body.appendChild(newDiv);

Try my solution
var str = "does [[this]] work [at all]?";
var regexp = /\[([a-z0-9\s]+)\]/ig;
var resultArray = str.match(regexp);
resultArray = resultArray.map((item) => {
return item.replace(/(\[|\])/g, "");
})
console.log(resultArray);

Regex to detect urls with '?' character at the end

I found many solutions, but none was useful for me.
Let's say, as an example, I want to find URLs that start with www. and end with a space or ?. In this case, I really mean it ends in a ?, not that it's necessarily a CGI-related URL.
I'm trying to use the regex
var r = /(^|[\s\?])(www\..+?(?=([\s]|\?|($))))/g;
My sample use: http://jsfiddle.net/DKNat/2/
How can I use \? in a regex to prevent the end of the URL containing / before ??
http://jsfiddle.net/DKNat/11/
I can't solve last prob with DOT at the end of url.
Can any body help?

Try this in your fiddle:
var r = /(^|\??)(www\.[^\?]+)/g;
I updated your fiddle here:
http://jsfiddle.net/DKNat/3/
Update:
I see what you are trying to do now. Unfortunately, both your strings are essentially the same, apart from the /, so unless you want your regex to make the assumption that a ? anywhere after a slash denotes a CGI call, then there isn't much you can do. But you could try this:
var r = /(^|\??)(www\.[^\?]+\/[^\/]+\?[^\?]+|www\.[^\?]+)/g;
Updated fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/DKNat/5/
Update 2: After determining the requirements, this is the final RegExp I added to fiddle 10:
var r = /(^|[\?\s])(www\.[^\? ]+\/[^\/ ]*\?[^\? ]+|www\.[^\? ]+)/g;

Javascript regex expression to replace multiple strings?

I've a string done like this: "http://something.org/dom/My_happy_dog_%28is%29cool!"
How can I remove all the initial domain, the multiple underscore and the percentage stuff?
For now I'm just doing some multiple replace, like
str = str.replace("http://something.org/dom/","");
str = str.replace("_%28"," ");
and go on, but it's really ugly.. any help?
Thanks!
EDIT:
the exact input would be "My happy dog is cool!" so I would like to get rid of the initial address and remove the underscores and percentage and put the spaces in the right place!
The problem is that trying to put a regex on Chrome "something goes wrong". Is it a problem of Chrome or my regex?

I'd suggest:
var str = "http://something.org/dom/My_happy_dog_%28is%29cool!";
str.substring(str.lastIndexOf('/')+1).replace(/(_)|(%\d{2,})/g,' ');
JS Fiddle demo.
The reason I took this approach is that RegEx is fairly expensive, and is often tricky to fine tune to the point where edge-cases become less troublesome; so I opted to use simple string manipulation to reduce the RegEx work.
Effectively the above creates a substring of the given str variable, from the index point of the lastIndexOf('/') (which does exactly what you'd expect) and adding 1 to that so the substring is from the point after the / not before it.
The regex: (_) matches the underscores, the | just serves as an or operator and the (%\d{2,}) serves to match digit characters that occur twice in succession and follow a % sign.
The parentheses surrounding each part of the regex around the |, serve to identify matching groups, which are used to identify what parts should be replaced by the ' ' (single-space) string in the second of the arguments passed to replace().
References:
lastIndexOf().
replace().
substring().

You can use unescape to decode the percentages:
str = unescape("http://something.org/dom/My_happy_dog_%28is%29cool!")
str = str.replace("http://something.org/dom/","");

Maybe you could use a regular expression to pull out what you need, rather than getting rid of what you don't want. What is it you are trying to keep?
You can also chain them together as in:
str.replace("http://something.org/dom/", "").replace("something else", "");

You haven't defined the problem very exactly. To get rid of all stretches of characters ending in %<digit><digit> you'd say
var re = /.*%\d\d/g;
var str = str.replace(re, "");

ok, if you want to replace all that stuff I think that you would need something like this:
/(http:\/\/.*\.[a-z]{3}\/.*\/)|(\%[a-z0-9][a-z0-9])|_/g
test
var string = "http://something.org/dom/My_happy_dog_%28is%29cool!";
string = string.replace(/(http:\/\/.*\.[a-z]{3}\/.*\/)|(\%[a-z0-9][a-z0-9])|_/g,"");

Help with a regular expression to capture numbers

I need to capture the price out of the following string:
Price: 30.
I need the 30 here, so I figured I'd use the following regex:
([0-9]+)$
This works in Rubular, but it returns null when I try it in my javascript.
console.log(values[1]);
// Price: 100
var price = values[1].match('/([0-9]+)$/g');
// null
Any ideas? Thanks in advance

Try this:
var price = values[1].match(/([0-9]+)$/g);
JavaScript supports RegExp literals, you don't need quotes and delimiters.
.match(/\d+$/) should behave the same, by the way.
See also: MDN - Creating a Regular Expression
Keep in mind there are simpler ways of getting this data. For example:
var tokens = values[1].split(': ');
var price = tokens[1];
You can also split by a single space, and probably want to add some validation.

Why don't you use this?
var matches = a.match(/\d+/);
then you can consume the first element (or last)
my suggestion is to avoid using $ in the end because there might be a space in the end.

This also works:
var price = values[1].match('([0-9]+)$');

It appears that you escaped the open-perens and therefore the regex is looking for "(90".

You don't need to put quotes around the regular expression in JavaScript.

Javascript RegEx match problem

I have a sentence structure along the lines of
[word1]{word2} is going to the [word3]{word4}
I'm trying to use a javascript regex to match the words for replacement later. To do this, I'm working towards getting the following multi-dimensional array:
[["word1", "word2"],["word3","word4"]]
I'm currently using this regex for the job:
\[(.*?)\]\{(.*?)\}
However, it comes up with results like:
["[word1]{word2}", "word1", "word2"]
or worse. I don't really understand why because this regex seems to work in Ruby just fine, and I'm not really much of a regex expert in general to understand what's going on. I'm just curious if there are any javascript rege expert's out there to whom this answer is very clear and can guide me along with what's going on here. I appreciate any help!
Edit:
This is the code I'm using just to test the matching:
function convertText(stringText) {
var regex = /\[(.*?)\]\{(.*?)\}/;
console.log(stringText.match(regex));
}

I assume you are using the exec method of the regular expression.
What you are doing is almost correct. exec returns an array where the first element is the entire match and the remaining elements are the groups. You want only the elements at indexes 1 and 2. Try something like this, but of course store the results into an array instead of using an alert:
var string = '[word1]{word2} is going to the [word3]{word4}';
var pattern = /\[(.*?)\]\{(.*?)\}/g;
var m;
while(m = pattern.exec(string)) {
alert(m[1] + ',' + m[2]);
}
This displays two alerts:
word1,word2
word3,word4

What you're seeing is Japanese hiragana. Make sure your input is in English maybe?
Edited to say: Upon further review, it looks like a dictionary entry in Japanese. The 私 is kanji and the わたし is hiragana, a phonetic pronunciation of the kanji. FWIW, the word is "Watashi" which is one of the words for "I" (oneself) in Japanese.
