[thelist] RE is Javascript

I''ve read all the RE articles on Evolt but I'm completely stuck on something that seems like it should be simple.

Why would this not return any instances of '<a'  ?

str = "<td colspan=\"2\" class=\"GRID\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\">30 Dec 2002</a></td>";
re = /<a/gi;
found = str.match(re); 
document.write(found);


Thanks,

SD.
