Hi. I have a chunk of text code, which has multiple lines. I'd like to do a regex, find a pattern, and in the line that matches the pattern, mod the line. Sounds simple.
I've created a test regex. However, after spending time/google.. can't quite figure out how to then get the "complete" line containing the returned regex/pattern. Pretty sure this is simple, and i'm just missing something. my test "text" and regex are: s=''' <td valign="top" colspan="1"><b><a href="#" id='CourseId10795788|ACCT2081|002_005_006' style="font-weight:bold;" onclick='ShowSeats(this);return false;' alt="Click for Class Availability" title="Click for Class Availability">ACCT2081</a></b></td>''' pattern = re.compile(r'Course\S+|\S+\|') aa= pattern.search(s).group() print "sss" print aa so, once I get the group, I'd like to use the returned match to then get the complete line.. pointers/thoughts!! (no laughing!!) thanks guys.. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
