Ok, so I'm an idiot. So I was working on a regex that took way to long to craft. After perfecting it, I upgraded my work machine with a blazing fast hard drive and realized that I never saved the regex anywhere and simply used RegexBuddy's autosave to store it. Dumb dumb dumb. I sent a copy of the regex to a coworker but now he c...
I've used RegexBuddy several times and found it to be a really useful tool. Is there anything like it in the open source world, preferably something that is platform agnostic? (the fact that regexbuddy is windows only is a real downer) The only thing I've been able to find is Kodos, which I've also used quite a lot, but it doesn't quit...
I use RegexBuddy while working with regular expressions. From its library i copied the regular expression to match urls. I tested succesfully within regexbuddy. However, when I copied it as Javas String flavor and pasted it into java code it does not work. The next class prints false: public class RegexFoo { public static void mai...
I'm using RegexBuddy but I'm in trouble anyway with this thing :\ I'm processing line by line a file. I built a "line model" to match what I want. Now i'd like to do an inverse match... i.e. I want to match lines where there is a string of 6 letters, but only if these six letters are not Andrea, how should I do that? EDIT: I'll writ...
I have this regex I built and tested in regex buddy. "_ [ 0-9]{10}+ {1}+[ 0-9]{10}+ {2}+[ 0-9]{6}+ {2}[ 0-9]{2}" When I use this in .Net C# I receive the exception "parsing \"_ [ 0-9]{10}+ +[ 0-9]{10}+ +[ 0-9]{6}+ [ 0-9]{2}\" - Nested quantifier +." What does this error mean? Apparently .net doesn't like the expression. Here is ...
Hello, I´m trying to make a regular expression to match a whitespace and so far I´m doing this: Powered[\s]*[bB]y.*MyBB I know it should work because I've tried it with Regex Buddy and it says it does but when I try to run it with Eclipse it marks an error saying it's not a valid escape sequence and it automatically adds 2 ´\´ renderi...
Ok so I have this regex that I created and it works fine in RegexBuddy but not when I load it into php. Below is an example of it. Using RegexBuddy I can get it to works with this: \[code\](.*)\[/code\] And checking the dot matches newline, I added the case insensitive, but it works that way as well. Here is the php: $q = "[code]<d...
I need to create a regular expression that allows a string to contain any number of: alphanumeric characters spaces ( ) & . No other characters are permitted.

Goal: Given a number (it may be very long and it is greater than 0), I'd like to get the five least meaningful digits dropping any 0 at the end of that number. I tried to solve this with regex, Helped by RegexBuddy I came to this one: [\d]+([\d]{0,4}+[1-9])0* But python can't compile that. >>> import re >>> re.compile(r"[\d]+([\d]{0...

How do I repair malformed HTML using C#? A great answer would be an HTML Agility Pack sample! I'm scraping a site (for legitimate use). The site's HTML is OK but there are some annoying problems. One way I could go would be through regular expressions. I used Expression Web to analyse the problems and the regular expressions needed t...
I feel lost with the Regex Unicode Properties presented by RegexBuddy, I cannot distinguish between any of the Number properties and the Math symbol property only seems to match + but not -, *, /, ^ for instance. Is there any documentation / reference with examples on regular expressions Unicode properties? ...
I have been banging my head against this for some time now: I want to capture all [a-z]+[0-9]? character sequences excluding strings such as sin|cos|tan etc. So having done my regex homework the following regex should work: (?:(?!(sin|cos|tan)))\b[a-z]+[0-9]? As you see I am using negative lookahead along with alternation - the \b aft...
