texte = Hi all,Trying to create a parsing mechanism, but can't get it to work the right way.I am posting a form like this examplethis is a test [b]with bold [i]and bold italic[/i] wordsThe text above is put into the variable set_main_txt which should be parsed through this grep parsing engine in the order below, which means that it first checks for [b] and [/b] and replaces them with and and then do the same with [i]...[!] -- REPLACE [b] WITH (ignore case) text [/!] [text]set_main_txt=[grep search=\[[bB]\]([^[unurl]%5B[/unurl]]*)\[/[bB]\]&replace=\1][text]set_main_txt[/text][/grep][/text][!] -- REPLACE [i] WITH (ignore case) text [/!] [text]set_main_txt=[grep search=\[[iI]\]([^[unurl]%5B[/unurl]]*)\[/[iI]\]&replace=\1][text]set_main_txt[/text][/grep][/text]My problem is that the [b] and the [/b] does NOT get parsed while the [i] and [/i] gets parsed correctly. The result is that when I output the variable set_main_txt only the word and bold italic get written in italic but nothing is written in bold.Hope someone can help me out here...PowerPallehttp://www.qt.dk/ (The new WebDNA Forum in development)------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
