Re: [regex-coach] regex not matching blank space after the beginning of the line?

Hi everybody,

In the following examples the double-quotes are only included for clarity, I'm not actually entering them into The Regex Coach.

Here are two regexes I'm trying: ##################### "\A*7[0-9][0-9]"

^^ Is that a typo?

And these are lines of data I'm trying those against: ######################## " 758" " 759" " 760" ########################

\s*[0-9]{3}

works fine here for any (or no) leading space followed by 3 digits.

Ian
