Hey guys, was wondering if anyone can tell me how or what I am doing wrong here.
Now I am not guru with the regexp but I don’t see what the problem is, what I have at the moment is this.
(?s)(.)(
[code])(.)([/code]
)(.*)
Now my understanding is that the (?s) means single line, so when I change that to (?m) I expect it would or should work over multiple lines, but it doesn’t seem to work.
The problem I have is that I am trying to take either of the following
[code][code]
[code]
[code]
[code]
[code]
And lastly
[code brush=””]
[code]
Anyone have any clues?
here you go:
(<pre>[\t\r\n]*?\[code(\sbrush(\s)*?=(\s)*?"(.*"))*?\(\s)*?])([.\r\n\t]*?)(\[code\][\t\r\n]*?</pre>)
im using this application, its really handy for regexes.

or use this one, which is a bit more flexible with whitespace;
(<pre>[\t\r\n\s]*?\[code(\sbrush(\s)*?=(\s)*?"(.*"))*?\(\s)*?])([.\r\n\t]*?)(\[code\][\t\r\n\s]*?</pre>)
Cheers when I stuck that in I am getting unmatched parentheses .
Only just looked at your reply.. how stupid.. i had put the (\s)*? in
front of the escape \ symbol.
this is the right one:
(<pre>[\t\r\n\s]*?\[code(\sbrush(\s)*?=(\s)*?"(.*"))*?(\s)*?\])([.\r\n\t]*?)(\[code\][\t\r\n]*?</pre>)
Thanks this ended up working a charm, I did make one change so it ended up being.
(?si)(
[\t\r\n\s]?[code(\sbrush(\s)?=(\s)?""(.?)"")?(\s)?])(.?)([/code][\t\r\n\s]?
)
Again thanks for this.
