hello all
im trying to capture only the first brackets but no matter what i do i
keep capturing from the first brackets to the last one , here what i
have :
<% if (!Env.strLen(oidInvoice)); szDocumentTitle =
Env.formatS("S",Env.getMsg("BP_INVOICE_ENUMERATION_CREATE_TITLE")) %>
and the regexp i have is :
<%\s*(if\s*\(.+?\))\s*%>
i like to capture only : if (!Env.strLen(oidInvoiceEnum))
with no luck what im doing wrong?
The entire regex is important, not just the part being caprutred. Your
regex asks for everything up to a ')' before zero or more spaces
before '%>'
You could try something like
'<%\s+(if.+?\));'
or
'<%\s+(if.+?\)\)).+%>'
The first way will be more effeciet, because it will stop as soon as
you hit the ';' instead of going on until the final '%>'.
