There are two things that are tripping you up. The first is the greediness of [^"'/]+. The part of the regex that matches a regular expression looks for an equal sign or left paren followed by a slash; unfortunately, the equal sign or left paren has already been gobbled up! You could fix this by adding = and ( to the character class. On the other hand, since you're substituting in place, you don't even need that part of the regex. Just remove [^"'/]+ | and it should work fine.
The other problem is this curious regex in the JS: mystring.match(/[/\\*?"<>\:~|]/gi);. That regex would not be valid in Perl, because it contains an unescaped forward slash. Is it really valid in JavaScript? If so, you'll need to extend your regex so that it allows unescaped slashes within square brackets.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
