ActionScript 2.0 :: RegExp Proggy - Match The Expression "lol" In A Sentance?
Aug 27, 2002
I want it to match the expression "lol" in a sentance.. I entered "lol 234234" for the main string for a test (remove the "`s, their not part of the expression)and I put the expression as "lol".I didn't touch parameter or flags, because I'm not really sure I know what they are heh .
I guess it works because I got : String.match(expression): true
[0] = lol
Also, how would I add expressions with it like : a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p, etc... so if he says a, or b, or c etc it would match it.
and want everything between the ( and the %)the string looks like this: (-24%)I now get a return back "(-24" and have searched for a long time to find a solution but didn't find any.
Using Actionscript 3.0 (Within Flash CS5)A standard regex to match any digit is:
var myRegexPattern:Regex = /d/g;
What would the regex look like to incorporate a string variable to match?(this example is an 'IDEAL' not a 'WORKING' snippet) ie:
var myString:String = "MatchThisText" var myRegexPatter_WithString:Regex = /d[myString]/g;
I've seen some workarounds which involve creating multiple regex instances, then combine them by source, with the variable in question, which seems wrong. OR using the flash string to regex creator, but it's just plain sloppy with all the double and triple escape sequences required.There must be some pain free way that I can't find in the live docs or on google.
I am using URL Loader to hit the server (e.g. Yahoo server) and then listing to HTTPStatusEvent.HTTP_STATUS" listener for Status code 200. If the response code is 200 then form submits to database else I am giving the error "URL is not valid".I am running my application from Tomcat server using address Issue: On submiting the form Flash returns "SecurityError stating "form.swf" cannot access data on "Yahoo server".I have also placed a crossdomain.xml file on the server with allowDomain set to wildcard "*";
I need to use RegExp to be able to extract titles from all anchor links in an htmlText field. ie- <a href="[URL]" target="_blank">THIS TEXT HERE</a> Any pointers?
The problem is: check a single word if belongs to a given language character set. So I think I have to instantiate a RegExp with expression [u4E00-u9FFF] (for Chinese language) in order to test against the specified word. But it does not work? Is this a bug with unicode ranges?
Im trying to trace the contents of a multiline TextField, line per line.Unfortunately Flash puts a linebreak after every line that needs to be removed.Therefore Im using a regular expression.[code]So if I would only trace the line after the regular expression it looks like this:[code]Why does the for loop skip on and off ?
How to convert a string to a regular expression? Right now if I try to convert a string to a regexp, the regular expression ends up with a / in front and a /g in the back.
I've had some problems with FMS crashing when trying to execute or compile large regular expressions. This is the most easily reproducible scenario:
var patterns = []; for(var iter = 0; iter < Math.pow(2, 16); iter++) { patterns.push('a'); } var filter = new RegExp('('+patterns.join('|')+')', 'i');
2^16 dies, 2^16 - 1 works fine. Understandable that it crashes with such a big RegExp, but the problem I have with FMS is that the error messages are useless when it crashes. "Experienced 1 failure(s)!" is all I get. So my question is; can we get better debug info when FMS crashes?
I am getting an error with RegExp class at my flash document. I am using an Action Script 2.0 at my document. Is RegExp class is not supported in AS1/AS2 ?
My code is as follows function validateEmailAddress(emailString:String):Boolean { var myRegEx:RegExp = /(w|[_.-])+@((w|-)+.)+w{2,4}+/; var myResult:Object = myRegEx.exec(emailString); if(myResult == null) {return false;}return true; } if(validateEmailAddress(email) == false) { contacterror = "Error ! Please Enter Valid Email Address";}
If RegExp not supported in ActionScript 2.0 then how to validate email address at ActionScript 2.0 ?
I have a CSV file that's being imported by users. I'm casting it to a string and splitting it up into an array using the line ending. The issue is, inside the quotes may be a line ending that I need to ignore. The RegExp I'm using to split the string is..
private var _newLine:RegExp = /[ ]|[ ]/;
how to ignore line breaks inside of quotes? or.. Find the line breaks inside quotes to use a replace method
I need to extract separate code "lines", where line is a set of characters, finished by ";" + arbitrary number of spaces and tabs + "" and I can't figure the right RegExp to do the trick.
text to extract: firstUpperCase(str) = concat( uppercase(
In the below code if i replace st2 into the pattern of regexp without quotes, it works fine.Now since i get the regular expression from some other file, as it is shown in st2. I want to add that into the regexp pattern. But as in the below code it doesnt work.
<fx:Script> import mx.controls.Alert public function onClicking(){
ActionScript Code: input.text = "[URL]"; function PlayVideo(event:MouseEvent):void { switch (event.type) { case "click": var findVideo:RegExp = /(?<=?v=)([a-zA-Z0-9_-])+/; trace(findVideo.exec(input.text)); break; }}
I don't know what video this is (just picked it randomly off of the front page), but by clicking a button, the RegExp is called, looks for an ID in the input.text String, but when it does and I trace it, it gives me this:
ActionScript Code: QGsGJlCpor4,4 What's with the ,4? How do I get rid of that?
search and replace text nodes from following string:
MY ORIGINAL STRING: var strTemp = '<p><text textId="textVariable1">This is my first text node.</text></p><question type="first">This is a first question.</question><p><text
I want to make replace some character. I want to make str = Tanitim-Filmimiz. But I can't do this. Code: import RegExp.as; var pattern:Array = new Array(); pattern[0] = new RegExp("s","s") pattern[1] = new RegExp("s","s") pattern[2] = new RegExp("g","g") [Code] .....
I am wondering if it is possible to use RegExp to retrieve info from a web site. I want to retrieve hurricane information from a web site by "scanning" the site for longitude, latitude information and have it return it to a text box on my app. Any ideas?
So I'd like to remove all spaces from an input text box, and replace them with commas, and I'd like to learn how to do this with RegExp, which I've never before used.This doesn't work (though if I do s.search(re) it returns the first space):
Code: var s:String = searchTerms.text; var re:RegExp = /s/g;
I'm working with printing in flash and I need to span long articles over several pages. I have worked out a solution for finding the overflowing text for each page. But the body text in the articles are formatted with HTML and CSS, so I cannot just split the text anywhere.
Example:
bodyField.htmlText results look like this:
HTML Code: ... <P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times Roman">Morbi non lectus et purus bibendum dictum</FONT></P><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times Roman">Morbi non lectus et purus bibendum dictum</FONT></P>...
If now my overflow algorithm finds that this text needs to be split up at character index 52 (the character "n" in "Morbi non"), then that leaves me without a closing P-tag at the current page and an opening P-tag on the next.
I would like to be able to find the character index of the "<" character that opens the P-tag that the split point character is within. Basically I would like to match any previous instance of "<P" before the given character index.
I'm having an issue with RegExp. I have a string variable equal to "1 + 2 + 3 + 4". I'm trying to use RegExp to replace that string inside another string, however the plus signs are causing it to not be recognized. If I take the plus signs out, it works. If I replace the plus signs with minus signs, it works. I know + means something in an expression, is there a way I can get flash to ignore it and keep the + sign in there?
