Javascript Import Variables
23:41 12 Jan 2026

so I have an HTML page, a linked Javascript(jQuery actually) file that has functions linked to clicks, etc. Then I want to add Regular Expressions to check user input. I want to maintain all JS Regular Expressions in one separate file, so that it is easy to manage, in case I add new Regular Exspressions. I tried using Import/Export, but I am getting errors like: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'export' (at 99_JS_Regex.js:1:1) Uncaught SyntaxError: Cannot use import statement outside a module (at 01_JScript_Main.js:3:7)

Here are the files:



  
    
    

    
      
            
    



                
        

File 99_JS_Regex:

export JS_Email_RG = "/^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,}$/";

File 01_JScript_Main.js:

(document).ready(function(){    
    $("#Login_Button").click(function(){        
        import JS_Email_RG from './99_JS_regex.js';     
        alert JS_EM_RG;     
    });
}); 

Also, I am not sure how to specify the path to the module file.. is it './module_file.js' or should I simply put 'module_file.js' or "'module_file.js'". many thanks...

javascript import module export
