 |
|
i've got this issue with html tags, .. for some reason
this can be <div id="building_contract2"> or <div id="building_contract">
| Code: | | regexp -nocase {<div id="building_contract"><div class="f10 b">.+?</div>(.+?)</div>} $data > build |
works
| Code: | | regexp -nocase {<div id="building_contract2"><div class="f10 b">.+?</div>(.+?)</div>} $data > build |
works
| Code: | | regexp -nocase {<div id="building_contract[0-9]{0,1}"><div class="f10 b">.+?</div>(.+?)</div>} $data > build |
doesn't work ..
why is that?

Just tested with some trivial data, and works just fine for me. You are using non-greedy quantifiers, so I can't see no good reason for the third one failing.
Could you post some real data that works/doesn't work?

it is kindoff a lot .. it's whole html page .. i did some tests to .. on emulated tests it works just fine however on a site it doesn't maybe i'm nto considering all special charaters,.. and should split the data before i regexp it .. i'll let you know how it turns out.

This is why Webby was created. You can test/debug regular expressions on a webpage in real time with a pretty standard simple interface. This should help you debug the problem.
