the allowed string can be anything (e.g. 'aeiou', etc) and is a parameter of my validate(allowed, value) function, thus I wouldn't like to use regex in this way. Could you please give me a regular expression based on the string. So I would use regex if I could make a regex of the string...

yes you can just have 'aeiou' using this regex: /^[aeiou]+$/ and you can export your string in your regex var string = "aeiou"; var reg = /^[+string+]$/
