: RegEx - help
Anyone got a RegEx to strip out certain HTML tags (and content between
them). I have a working StripHTML UDF now but I require one which
can
say
remove this in its entirety:
select name=foo
option value=pingpong/option
/select

The question marks in this instance are instructions to not create a

have to adjust which backreferences you use in the replace param.

It's a (mistyped :) Perl extension that POSIX (and CF) don't support:
'?:' after the '(' stops the parenthesised section being treated as a
referenceable subexpression: it's just used for grouping.

You should probably replace the second and third spaces with the generic space

You should probably replace the second and third spaces with the
generic space class. This will allow tabs, returns, and spaces.

I'm trying to parse through some information in a text document where
there is information like this:
Text text text text text text text
FirstName: Bob Age: 30 text text text
This is working ok in CF5 but apparently not in CFMX
Malformed regular _expression_ \[[^\]*\].
Reason: Unmatched [] in _expression_..
REReplace(ThisTag.GeneratedContent, \[[^\]*\], , All)
it's supposed to strip all [] with everyting inbetween the brackets

The answer is (w{3})? , but in your case: why bother?

The best would sure be to CFHTTP the addres and check for the code returned.
Even a syntactically correct address may be a bad address.

Does anyone have a regex handy to check a potential link.
For instance: I need to make sure the link specified is in the following
format
http://www.whatever OR http://something
Im not sure what the best check would be, I guess this is the least common
denominator for strictly http links.

for something like:

You are on the right track,
You might need to use several regexps to extract any valid format, then
see if you have anything left.
AFAIK, valid chars would be:
cfset V = [A-Za-z0_-] /
so you check for 1-n V period 1-n V period 1-n V
that takes char of the domain address
from now on you also
more accurately you should say [A-Za-z0-9]+
one or more of the above -- www is acceptable, but not required.
