Re: Regex search problem

Here's what I usually do: loc = refind(text, thing, 1, 1); while (loc.pos[1]) { //do stuff loc = refind(text, thing, 1, loc.pos[1]+loc.len[1]); } It's 1 extra line of code, but it means only doing n+1 searches, where n is the

RE: Regex search problem

Ahh... I was REALLY hoping you were right about that. That would have been great. In any event, I learned something new about refind() so thanks! I'll always think of you and the time we shared in this thread when I use it. hehe As for running the regex twice... Since looping a space delimited lis

Re: Regex search problem

No, you're right about the "all". I'm confusing the refind() and rereplace() syntax. But, yes. By using a regex in the condition, you are running it twice per loop. --Ben Doom Bobby Hartsfield wrote: > The option is called 'returnsubexpressions' and valid values are true or > false. You can

RE: Regex search problem

The option is called 'returnsubexpressions' and valid values are true or false. You can only return one instance of a match with refind() (and possibly one instance of a sub expression match if you use parens in the expression). To get more, you have to run the function again with a different start

Re: Regex search problem

You can do an refind(text, "\d+", 1, "all") refind in text digits starting at position one find all This will return an array of structs with keys pos and len. Pos is the start position, and len is the length. You can then use mid() to grab them. --Ben Doom Web Exp wrote: > Thanks Ray... > Ok

Re: Regex search problem

Thanks Ray... Ok... I guess I should have clarified that I am using CF MX7, so I cannot use reMatch function. Also, what I am looking for is to find a list of numbers between the strings: "testId" and "Text" in this pattern: "testId67Text more text more text testId49Text more text testId54Text more
