Well, refind and friends all return a position in the string. I don't know of a way to have the desired substring returned instead of the position of the substring. Are you saying you can use a look ahead to have a substring returned from refind? -Original Message- From: Taco Fleur

Ah, we are discussing the difference between 5 bytes and 1 byte in RAM? Well, to each his own, whatever works. ;) Actually, to be honest I got the positions/subexpressions idea from the MM docs, so I can't take credit for that. -Original Message- From: Taco Fleur [mailto:[EMAIL

Yeah, you're right. They were denying stuff like 'JavaScript', but allowing anything that wasn't on their deny list. The problem is they want to allow as much stuff as possible to make it cool for the users, while not allowing too much. It should be possible to only allow a small set of
