Steve,
Try
<cfset StringToSearch = "bla bla [code] this is stuff [/code] bla bla">
<cfset arrayMatch = REFindNoCase("(?:\[code\])(.*)(?:\[/code\])",
StringToSearch,
1,
"True")>
<cfset searchResult = Mid(StringToSearch,
arrayMatch.pos[2],
arrayMatch.len[2])>
<cfoutput>#searchResult#</cfoutput>
Also, for a really nice tool (free) for playing around with regexp:

Hey guys
Can anyone help me here?
REFindNoCase("(?=(\[code\]))(.*?)(?=(\[\/code\]))",tmpContent,1,true);
I have a string that could for example look like this
[code]
hello
[/code]
I am trying to extract "hello" from the string.
I can do it no probs but it includes the [code] and [/code] strings, which
if i can aviod it i would like to.
Now according to the docs, prefixing the group with ?= will look for it but
isnt suposed to return it as part of the results. So (?=(\[code\])) should
not be returning [code] in my string, but is is. The strange this is aswell
that the (?=(\[\/code\])) is actually working, as in it is not being
included in the string.
So at the moment I am ending up with :
[code]
hello
Any ideas here? From what I can see this SHOULD work, but its not :(
Regards
Steve Onnis
