What's happening is this:

The HTML/Javascript reads:

    function cdnmask () { 
     this.aa = new Array("lastName", "", new Function 
("varName", "this.conditionMask='^\\w*$'; this.cdnProperty='firstName'; 
this.cdnValue='piggy';  return this[varName];"));
    } 

This means that (because the string itself is interpretted once) what actually 
is placed in the String is:
this.conditionMask='^\w*$'

Then, when you ask to print it using alert, the \w is evaluated and turns into 
w.
