Regex :: Regular Expression For A Specific Pair Or Each Item In A Pair?
Jul 12, 2010
I have a situation where I might be getting one or both of a pair of characters and I want to match either.
For example: str = 'cddd a dfsdf b sdfg ab uyeroi'
I want to match any "a" or "b" or "ab". If the "ab" comes together I want to catch it as a single match (not as two matches "a" "b"). If I get "ab" it will always be in that order ("a" will always precede "b")
What I have is: /[ab]|ab/
But I'm not sure if the ab is going to be a stronger match term than the [ab].

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?

Also, I would need it to work with other samples as well. Im getting this from the reddit api, so id have to extract that same section from a whole bunch of these.

I'm trying to find the number of newlines in a string using the Actionscript 3.0 RegExp engine. Using the string.match function and RegExp(" ","g") does not find the newlines in a string which contains newlines. Is there something I need to add to the pattern or something else that I am missing?

give me the Regular Expression that can check if a given string has any HTML code in it, and coming to think of it I would be bothered with <a href="something">something</a> exactly.

I've been struggling with this problem for a while:I have a string containing HTML and I'm using a regular expression to get the characters between the tags. I'm then attempting to apply a TextFormat to those characters.The problem is that I'm using the TextField's "htmlText" property instead of it's "text" property (because I don't want the HTML tags to be visible). So, the character index that's returned from the regular expression is incorrect, when I apply the TextFormat.Here is some sample code which illustrates the problem:
var txt:String = "<b>Sample</b> string with bold text";
var tf:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(tf);

find the suitable regular expression to validate a string that has comma separated numbers, for e.g. '1,2,3' or '111,234234,-09', etc. Anything else should be considered invalid. for e.g. '121as23' or '123-123' is invalid. I suppose this must be possible in Flex using regular expression but I can not find the correct regular expression.

I am trying to get every possible pair of objects out of an array. I only want unique objects, so the pairs (obj1, obj2) and (obj2, obj1) would be the same and thus not unique. I do not want any repeats either.

I'm having trouble updating a property value of a custom class (SubLoader) using a getter and setter. Inside the if() statement of the main fla you can see my attempt to set the percent value. Running a trace() method before the if() statement always outputs '0' for some reason. Tracing after the if() statment outputs an actual value. I can't figure out why the percent property always traces as '0' before the if statement even though I am updating it with each progress event.

I believe there is a few things that I am doing wrong in both my php and actionscript that is keeping the textvalue from the variable $username from being passed to flash.

I have set up a roll_over / roll_out listener that works for me, but the event only applies to "inBulb_mc". As I have it set now, a bunch of squares are blinking through random colors. I want the mouseover to pause this event no matter which mc i mouse over. Is there a way to indicate that this should work for any instancename "inBulb_mc"+number.
using a variable such as i=0; i++ ; won't work because i need it to happen wherever the mouse is.
Quote:
inBulb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER, manageMouseOver, false, 0, true);
inBulb_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT, manageMouseOut, false, 0, true);
Is there a way to set it up so that the listener works for all instances of inBulb_mc, be it inBulb_mc0 inBulb_mc1 inBulb_mc2 etc

I'm developing a multi-player game and I know nothing about how to connect from one client to another via a server. Where do I start? Are there any whizzy open source projects which provide the communication framework into which I can drop my message data or do I have to write a load of complicated multi-threaded sockety code? Does the picture change at all if teh clients are running on phones?

I'm trying to create a replace method that allows me to surround parts of a string with tags. I tried this with a regular replace technique (join and split) but thats case sensitive. what i want is:
: "A nice example line"
and replace "Ice" in that line to surround it with bold tags, result:
text: "A n<b>ice</b> example line"
ActionScript Code:
var str:String = "A nice example line";
var pattern:RegExp = /(w+)-(w+)/gi;
trace(str.replace(pattern, "$2,$1"));
But i just can't figure out the replace pattern
