Here is some example code that breaks the syntax highlighting:

var str = "This is a \"quote\" test";
str.replace(/["]/g, '');
// Example function
function foo() {
  console.log("foo");
}
// Example function 2
function bar(arg) {
  console.log("bar");
}
str2 = "this is a test string";
foo();
bar();

Same here with a simple regexp like this:

var regexp = /^[A-Za-z'-\s]+$/
return regexp.test(username);
