I think the first solution without the regexp works a bit better, but take your pick:
<cfset mystring="/web/path/to/myfile.jpg JPEG 1280x1024 DirectClass 8-bit 95kb 0.3u 0:01"> <cfset dimensions=listGetAt(mystring,3," ")> <cfset width=listGetAt(dimensions,1,"x")> <cfset height=listGetAt(dimensions,2,"x")> <cfoutput>width: #width#, height: #height#<br></cfoutput> <cfset findWidth=reFind("[0-9]+",mystring,0,"true")> <cfset width=mid(mystring, findWidth.pos[1], findWidth.len[1])> <cfset findHeight=reFind("[0-9]+",mystring,findWidth.pos[1],"true")> <cfset height=mid(mystring, findHeight.pos[1], findHeight.len[1])> <cfoutput>width: #width#, height: #height#<br></cfoutput> Only problem with both is there is no error checking for the case where no width/height is set, and also the regexp would return the wrong result if the filename had numbers in it. Hth, James -----Original Message----- From: Willy Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, 10 October 2002 19:55 To: CF-Talk Subject: SOT: RegEx Ok, I have a string that looks like this: /web/path/to/myfile.jpg JPEG 1280x1024 DirectClass 8-bit 95kb 0.3u 0:01 It's an imagemagic identification of a file that my user is uploading. myfile.jpg is CFFILE.clientfile. I need to go through this thing and get the 1280x1024 out. I could come up with a way to do this w/o regular expressions, but it wouldn't be as flexible as I'd like it to be. I've tried this: <cfset location = REFind("/d+x/d+", mystring)> And this: <cfset start = REFind("[/d+]x[/d+]", mystring)> Doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
