I have the following code (AS3 & CS 5.5):
var regEx:RegExp = new RegExp(/(?:^|s)(#[^s$]+)/g);
var txt:String = "This #asd is a test tweet #hash1 test #hash2 test";
var matches:Object = regEx.exec(txt);
trace(matches);
The trace returns '#asd,#asd'. I really don't understand why it would to this, as in my RegEx testing application 'RegExhibit' it returns '#asd,#hash1,#hash2', which is what I'd expect.
I need to write a regex which will match URLs that do not have a specific query string name/value pair anywhere in its URL. All other query string names, and all other query string values with the same name should be matched. Other pages in the same directory (or sub-directories) should not be matched.URL...The query string name and value that I need to exclude from matches is:[code]How can I prevent matches when the string exists anywhere in the pattern?
View 3 RepliesI have the following regex, which will match all the <br> and <br /> tags in a string:
/<br[s|/]*>/gi
I actually want to match every set of two consecutive tags, with valid matches being:
<br><br>
<br/><br>
<br><br/>
<br/><br/>
(and all variations with a space before the slash)
Obviously I can just double up the expression to /<br[s|/]*><br[s|/]*>/gi, but is there a shorter way of taking the first expression and saying "this, but twice"?
I have to validate a textfield in AS3 if there are chars like # $ % @ ~ | {} [] / etc. i.e find unnecessary chars and remove them from the textfield. I use a search AS3 function which works with regular expressions, I would like a regular expression so that a search function searches the characters above and if it finds any of them then returns true.

The split function is deleting all the matches! Why is this happening?
Im trying to write something that compares two strings and returns the matches between the two.
Example:
String 1: Personal Training,Laptop,Massages,Facials,Web Design,Cars
String 2: Web Design,Telecaster,Cars,Beagles,Painting,Laptop
Would yield: Cars, Laptop Web Design

Since there is no way that you can make the flash object transparent, there needs to be some other means by which you can match the background. I thought of maybe creating a ActionScript/Javascript bridge, but I wonder if this is the route to take.

View 5 RepliesThis is more of a rant than a question; but I am curious to know if anyone has some insight for me. The application I am working on deals with a C# .NET backend; communication is achieved via a socket over which we push AMF objects. The AMF object class definitions are generated by the server side team and I just have to use registerClassAlias on the flash side to link them up - pretty standard; the only difference being that as they come from a C# background they prefer to use UpperCammelCasing instead of lowerCamelCasing for property names.
Today I got a bunch of updated AMF objects which I dropped into the project; but I noticed that after updating my project would no longer compile [code]...
I have a list of fonts obtained via Font.enumerateFonts() and I want to display them all as 12 pixels tall. The problem is that I cannot simply set the point size because this can vary in actual pixel size for each font. So basically I want to determine what the correct point size is for a font in order to make it exactly 12 pixels tall. Because I'm doing this with a potentially large list I'm looking for an efficient method to do this.

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.
At the moment, I have the following regex for replacing a URL to a HTML hyperlink:
[Code]...
Basically I am using UTF-8 characters codes u0000 to u0008 as part of a socket server.I need a little regex pattern to replace these chars with somthing like a $ symbol to make them really obvious (while tracing output etc..).I believe it should be something like:
Code:
filter:RegExp = new RegExp("[u0000u0001u0002u00..]");
myNewString = myString.replace(filter, "%")
I have this:
var regExp:RegExp = new RegExp("((.*?)%)");
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.
I've written a url validator for a project I am working on. For my requirements it works great, except when the last part for the url goes longer than 22 characters it breaks. My expression:/((https?)://)([^s.]+.)+([^s.]+)(:d+/S+)/i
It expects input that looks like "http(s)://hostname:port/location". When I give it the input: https://demo10:443/111112222233333444445
it works, but if I pass the input https://demo10:443/1111122222333334444455
it breaks. You can test it out easily at[URL].. Oddly, I can't reproduce the problem with just the relevant (I would think) part /(:d+/S+)/i. I can have as many characters after the required / and it works great. Any ideas or known bugs?

I need 3 different regular expressions one that finds at the beginning of the string a 'D' and a space then a name, so 'D patrickgates hello there' would return 'D patrickgates', or if all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find the @ sign and a name together anywhere in the string so '@patrickgates hello, world' would work and return '@patrickgates' or if at all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find 'RT' and a space and then '@' and the username at the beginning of the string so 'RT @patrickgates' would work if returning just the username and also being true isn't possible with one regex, then I could use one to match to, and one that will delete the 'D' or the '@' or the 'RT'.
View 2 RepliesI found there is a bug in this highlight editor: [URL]
The following ASP.Net code can't be highlighted correctly

The problem is about the regular expression, how can I find this whole line by regular expression?

The main challenges are:
The <%@ %> instruction may contains another <%$ %> instruction in its attribute, just like the one above The <%@ %> instruction may have a line break in it, just like the following.

RegEx for BMHT in a sequence is my previous post. I'm looking to build a number using abbreviations, and ofcourse using regex.
Now I know how to validate a number with BMTH abbreviations. Now my next and final target is to build a number using the abbreviations. e.g. -2T2H22.55 should be displayed as -2,222.55 -2M2H22.63 should be displayed as -2,000,222.63
I have absolutely no knowledge in Regex whatsoever. Basically what I'm trying to do is have an error class that I can use to call errors (obviously) which looks like this:
package avian.framework.errors

The idea is to replace {0} with the first parameter parsed in ...params, {1} with the second, etc.
I've done a bit of research and I think I've worked out that I need to search using this pattern:
var pattern:RegExp = /{d}/;
I have a text field within Flash that contains a block of (obviously) text. What I want to do is perform a search on the content of the text field that returns the x & y coordinate and the width & height of the found text. The result will be used to place a visual element over that portion of the text box.
For example:
var pattern:RegExp = /d+/g;
var found:Array = box.text.match(pattern);
var i:String;
for each(i in found) {
/**
* Find the x, y, width, height of the matched text in the text field
* Use result to place transparent yellow box around text
*/
}
Which visually should result in something like:
