Re: [WebDNA] ONLY the FIRST continuous run of numeric chars?
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2008
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 101226
interpreted = N
texte = [text show=F]myString=1155 Bluebridge, apt.#2[/text][grep search=[^0-9]*([0-9][0-9]*).*&replace=\1][myString][/grep]The above works in the situation you've described, namely the firstnumber of 1 or more digits returned and nothing else.I'm not sure why you wanted the other text for back reference.To the question below, WebDNA regex does not handle one or more, i.e.+, the way you'd expect. The workaround is to repeat the reference.BillOn Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 5:35 PM, Govinda
