That would be:
var re:RegExp = new RegExp("^" + userString);
_siteXML..*.( re.test( attribute("name")));

Note: I simplified the regex a little bit. The .* at the end is redundant,
and I removed the [] because /^New/ is different than /^[New]/ and the first
seems more like what you want. The first matches any string beginning with
"New", and the later matches any string beginning with any of the following
characters: "N", "e", "w".

You too, go read that book I mentioned in a thread yesterday! ;)
