>>If you want to only grab the first paragraph you need to set the regex to be >>"not greedy". It escapes me how to do that in CFMX (which uses Java >>RegExes), but unfortunately this just couldn't be done in CF before MX.
Thats not quite true, it's just a bit trickier. str = "<p><b>hello</b></p><p>goodbye</p>" RE = "<p[^>]*>([^<]|<[^/]|</[^p])+</p>" Using this you can loop to REFindNoCase every <p> tag in a string provided that they're not nested. This should work with CF5. This is for those poor souls who for some reason must stick to a version prior to MX ;) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:21:814 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/21 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:21 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.21 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
