[regex-coach] Two Problems
by Snow Squall 24 Nov '04

24 Nov '04

Hello, first time poster... I have two issues that i can't seem to track down.... 1. I'm looking for a rule that will eliminate the following. I'm looking for all of my web pages that have some snippit of code before the <!DOCTYPE... my <!DOCTYPE should start the HTML on my web pages... I've seen individuals sneak the following code in:  <!DOCTYPE HTML Public ..ect... So is there a regex construct that will fail if any characters are found before <!DOCTYPE ??? 2. Secondly, looking to find ONLY the .PDF's inside a test.com domain. I wish to match the pattern http://www.test.com/snow/squall/index.pdf . I know to start my regex as http://www\.test\.com but how do i ignore all the directory stuff and key in on the .pdf extension. Thanks

Looks like a great tool once the bugs are out ... I tried a simple case in the Mac OS X version ... Reg-Ex: text\d Target String: text0123text It just says ... Unknown token FAKE-ENTRY in parse-tree Also, it appears the cursor keys do not work for editing the reg-ex and target strings. - Ray

[regex-coach] manual "recalc"
by Dennis Williamson 09 Nov '04

It would be nice to have a manual "recalc" mode so text and regexes could be entered without being evaluated until a button is clicked or "recalc" mode is turned back on. Dennis

[regex-coach] highlight suggestion
by Anthony Bautista Jr. 09 Nov '04

Greetings, I am new to this mailing list & tool & have to see that it definitely has potential to be a very helpful tool / coach. In going through some basic examples, I have observed the following issue: For... Regular Expression: a+ Target String: Mary had a little lamb. And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go. ... and while 'g' checkbox is checked, only the first 'a' character is highlighted yellow in the 'Target String' box. It would be nice & consistent with the 'Match from 1 to 2', 'Replace' tab for all the 'a' characters to highlight whilst the 'g' (replace globally) checkbox is checked. My thoughts are that the 'g' checkbox should be a global setting that will affect the 'Replace' tab & 'Split' tab. That is, if the 'g' is unchecked, then only the first match is replaced and split (and highlighted, my main concern) consistently, but if checked, then all matches would be hit. FYI - I'd like to share my first success, an expression that can be used to partially hide credit card numbers transmission in clear text over the net (like for order / invoice confirmations etc...): ([^{1}])([0-9]{10}) or [^{1}][0-9]{10} Anyhow, thanks in advance & I look forward to feedback re: my suggestion

[regex-coach] [:alnum:]
by Veit Guna 09 Nov '04

Hi there. First of all great job you've done there with RegEx Coach :)! While I was testing some regular expressions for logcheck (a program to check logfiles e.g. syslog etc. :)), I noticed, that the expression [:alnum:] for alphanumeric characters (used with egrep) isn't recognized correctly. I think it's because CL-PPCRE is used, is that correct? Will there be alnum support in some way in the furure? B.R. Veit Guna
