When a regular expression match is to be replaced by a new string, the new string is constructed using the rules used by the ECMAScript replace function in ECMA- 262 [Ecma International, ECMAScript Language Specification, Standard Ecma-262, third edition, 1999], part 15\&.5\&.4\&.11 String\&.prototype\&.replace\&. In addition, during search and replace operations all non-overlapping occurrences of the regular expression are located and replaced, and sections of the input that did not match the expression are copied unchanged to the output string\&.
