List of all characters that should be escaped before put in to RegEx?

Take a look at PHP.JS's implementation of PHP's preg_quote function, that should do what you need:

http://phpjs.org/functions/preg_quote:491

The special regular expression characters are: . \ + * ? [ ^ ] $ ( ) { } = ! < > | : -


According to this site, the list of characters to escape is

[, the backslash \, the caret ^, the dollar sign $, the period or dot ., the vertical bar or pipe symbol |, the question mark ?, the asterisk or star *, the plus sign +, the opening round bracket ( and the closing round bracket ).

In addition to that, you need to escape characters that are interpreted by the Javascript interpreter as end of the string, that is either ' or ".
