Regex - Flex 3 Regular Expression?
Mar 11, 2010I'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?

Regex - Regular Expression To Count How Many Newlines () There Are In A String?
Jan 10, 2011I'm trying to find the number of newlines in a string using the Actionscript 3.0 RegExp engine.

Mar 28, 2009After 2 nights of *almost* getting it I realized that Flash's RegExp doesn't support lookbehinds. Here are the 3 scenarios:
1) [URL]
2) <a href="http://example.com">http://example.com</a>
3) <br><br>http://example.com<br><br>
Basically what I want to happen is to ignore scenario #2. I know the solution, but I can't seem to nail it. All that needs to happen is to select the http (and everything after that) as long as it's not preceded by a "> or =", but since I don't know a way for RegExp to look backwards, I'm sort of at a loss. Here's hoping that someone has run into this issue before
Regex :: Using Regular Expression And TextFormat To Style Text Between HTML Tags?
Mar 1, 2012I'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);

Regex :: Regular Expression To Check Comma Separated Number Values In Flex
Mar 10, 2011find 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.

Regex :: Regular Expression For A Specific Pair Or Each Item In A Pair?
Jul 12, 2010I 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].

ActionScript 3.0 :: Input Textfield And Special Chars (Slovenian Chars Mostly)?

View 2 RepliesActionScript 2.0 :: Special Chars And Xml Send Method?
Aug 8, 2006I'm sending an xml file from flash to php, so php can save it to the servers filesystem.It works great, except when there's a node with a special char like a quote in it.My actionscript code is like this:
Code:
xmlExport.xmlDecl = "xml=";
xmlExport.sendAndLoad("xmlexport.php", xmlExportStatus);
And my php code is like this:
PHP Code:
fwrite($handle, stripslashes(urldecode($_POST['xml'])));
Both somewhat simplified, but this is what matters I think.I'm not sure about the urldecode part, but I've got this problem always, no matter if I use it or not.I've traced the xml object, and I see that the quote is converted to ' then. That's great, but when php writes it, it stops there, so I end with only half of an xml file.
