NodeJS regex returns 0 on string.search()

I'm working on a NodeJS script (launched from the CMD with the node command) getting me some HTML content in a string, in which I need to extract some data between a specific <div> element. I'm having a hard time firguring why this portion of code doesn't give me the desired output.

const input = '<div class="some_class">Some data</div><div class="some_other_class">< class="some_other_other_class">...</div></div>'
const regex = new RegExp(/<div class="some_class"\>(.*?)<\/div>/g)
let obj = {
    'tmp': input.search(regex),
}
console.log(obj) // outputs { tmp: 0}
console.log(input.search(/<div class="some_class"\>(.*?)<\/div>/g)) // outputs 0
 
const x = input.search(/<div class="some_class"\>(.*?)<\/div>/g)
console.log(x) // outputs 0

I know this seems a bit of a regular issue here, but I tried passing the Regex with string format (between single quotes '), passing it as a Regex (between delimiter /) and finally by defining a new RegExp element, but without success. I always happen to get 0 as an output.

However, when I test it on an online tool, it does match and capture the desired data in the group #1 : https://www.regextester.com/?fam=131034

I don't know if I'm missing something or if I'm doing something wrong, but after some hours spent on this issue, I'm quite struggling to get my ideas straight.

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
