Re: [unclassified] Re[2]: Yet another RegEx question
Hello Marten Gallagher,
\[[0-9]{1,3}\/[0-9]{1,3}\]
Thanks so much! Somehow I missed the '{1,3}' parts which made it work
with more than 1 numeric character! DUH! ;-p
I'm impressed - with me - first time I've ever advised on RegEx!!!

Re: Yet another RegEx question
Hello tbudl,
OK, a RegEx question:
I am receiving hundreds of spam messages that contain the following
text, with the numeric part in the brackets varying endlessly -
Re: [1/53]: Reday 2 Odrer olinne
How do I pattern match the [1/53] and all the endless numeric and
text variations to send them expeditiously to my spam folder? I've
read the help files and just can't seem to get it right. The brackets
and the numbers combination vary, with up to 3 numeric characters
either side of the forward slash.
\[[0-9]{1,3}\/[0-9]{1,3}\]
Match the character [ literally «\[»
Match a single character in the range between 0 and 9 «[0-9]{1,3}»
Between one and 3 times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed
(greedy) «{1,3}»
Match the character / literally «\/»
Match a single character in the range between 0 and 9 «[0-9]{1,3}»
Between one and 3 times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed

One of these days I may 'get' 50% of the RegEx syntax. But then again
I flunked both typing and basic programming in 1972.

RegEx question
Dear tbudl, I want to extract one HTML string naving particular color. How can i do this? Problem is, that this RegEx stops on *last* /P sequence, not on first. And this RegEx gives all text within first 80 and last /P. ,- [ ] | %SETPATTREGEXP='(80)(.*s?)(/P)'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%COMMENT'%SUBPATT='2' `- But I need text *between* 80 and first /P after 80! -- Best regards, Sergey Uvarov mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TheBat version :1.62/Beta1, Running at NT 5.0, Build 2195 Service Pack 2.

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, the reason for the regex is that I want to filter ONLY if Startword is the FIRST word and Endword is the LAST word. If they are in any other positions, or if one is missing, the message is not filtered. The positions are important. It is actually a bit more complex - Startword and Endword can be one of about 3 words each. I first wanted to see if the pre part could be eliminated, and Startword recognized as the "start".

Regex question
I'd like to filter on a subject line. The structure is: Startword stuff in the middle Endword This structure is sometimes prefixed with another word or two as: [pre1.. pren] Startword stuff in the middle Endword The 1-3 words in the beginning are always surrounded by square brackets [ ]. What I'd like to do is ignore the brackets, and any words in the brackets, and still be able to filter on Startword and Endword. How can I do that? T much IA, ztrader -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi ztrader, On Mon, 19 Mar 2001 20:28:14 -0800GMT (20/03/2001, 12:28 +0800GMT), ztrader wrote: z Startword stuff in the middle Endword In the filter, create two rules (on the rules tab): first one: Startword / Location: Subject / Presence: Yes second one: Endword / Location: Subejct / Presence: Yes If they both under the first tab, they have to be both true for this filter to catch. It would also work if someone wrote: "blaba endword [juhu] startword andson", but that should not happen too often, I hope. z This structure is sometimes prefixed with another word or two as: z [pre1.. pren] Startword stuff in the middle Endword No prob, as long as both keywords are in the subject somewhere, it'll work. -- Cheers, Thomas.
