    Online Regex Tester not working when set to Client-Side

    Hi,
    Thanks for this really useful website.
    I have used your Regex Tester quite a lot, especially the VBScript client-side version.
    Unfortunately it seems to me that the tool is not working anymore, perhaps from the last update a couple of months ago.
    If I open the page http://regexlib.com/RETester.aspx and set the Options to "Use Client-Side Regex Engines", the page is correctly reloaded to host the combobox that allows to switch between Javascript and VBScript.

    Unfortunately, as soon as I change the selected value in the above combo, a Javascript error message box pops up.

    It looks like the following block is to blame:

    <select name="..." id="..." onchange="checkEngine(this.form)">
      <option selected="selected" value="JavaScript">JavaScript</option>
      <option value="VBScript">VBScript</option>
    </select>

    When executing checkEngine(this.form) the following error is thrown up: Object expected.
    Exactly the same error is risen a couple of lines below the previous ones:

    <input id="btnExecuteClient" onclick="execute(this.form)" type="button" value="Execute" />


    I hope this will help to fix the error an bring new life to this essential tool you have built.

    Thank you very much.
    Paolo

    Thanks Paolo!  Next chance I get to update RegexLib.com I'll try and fix this bug.
