Javascript not working about otto HOT 4 CLOSED

I get this error:

SyntaxError: Invalid regular expression: invalid or unsupported Perl syntax: `(?!` (line 2567)

Unfortunately, we're using Go's regular expression engine, which doesn't have some nifty features: http://code.google.com/p/re2/

@robertkrimen isn't possible to switch to something pcre like? I know it requires cgo but we can use a build flag when we don't want that.

I wanted to use otto for compiling less or react none of them works and I bet most of templating languages.

Does it work if you use this fork of otto instead? (same changes as in pull request #205). It's supposed to be compatible with how regex is handled in JavaScript, but needs more testing. (The pastebin page above is gone, so I can't test it).

Example not available any more, so closing.
