This WebDNA talk-list message is from 2008
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 101251
interpreted = N
texte = Zero or more non-numbers followed by one or more numbers and then what followsOR (i.e. if no match)everything.If there is a match in the first part before the pipe, then grep willuse that and ignore the request to grab everything. The second partwas added to ignore addresses without a number and return the blankyou wanted.BillOn Tue, Oct 21, 2008 at 12:19 PM, Govinda
