I have a to match a field in MySQL, for which I thought I could use a regular expression, but it appears that MySQL doesn't have the functionality I need to do the job. Here's the scenario: I have a variable in PHP called $url. Let's say this variable is set as the string "/article/my-article/page/2". I also have a table of URLs in M...

I was trying to write a regexp to replace all occurrences of \n with \r\n unless the \n is already proceeded imediately by a \r. I'm doing this in Ruby 1.8.6 which doesn't support look behind in regexps so I tried: # try to replace \n proceeded by anything other than \r with \r\n str.gsub(/([^\r])\n/, "\\1\r\n") # \\1 is the captured ch...

I want to echo a string with the variable inside including the ($) like so: echo "$string"; I dont want it to echo the variable for string, I want it to echo '$string' itself, and not the contents of a variable. I know I can do this by adding a '\' in front of the ($), but I want to use preg_replace to do it. I tried this and it doesn...
return mystring.replace(/&/g, "&").replace(/>/g, ">") .replace(/</g, "<").replace(/"/g, """); The above is my code, and I guess since it tracks the string 4 times, it makes it slower. Is there any other way (method prefered) to replace those special characters in only one loop? Well I can do it with a for loop an...

Hey there geniuses of SO! This is for an autocomplete plugin that needs to accept data as an array of arrays and convert it using a format string (or regex). The format string could be any format. var dataArray = [ ["data1-1", "data1-2", "data1-3"], ["data2-1", "data2-2", "data2-3"],... ]; var format = "<li>{0} <br /> -- <small> {1}, {...
Does anybody know how I could have, in a MySQL query, the same behaviour as the Regex.Replace function (for instance in .NET/C#)? I need that because, as many people, I would like to count the number of words in a field. However, I'm not satisfied with the following answer (given several times on that site): SELECT LENGTH(name) - LENGT...

Example: Search for "hello" and delete any line with "hello" in it. yo hello hey hey hi hello bye bye s...

I've converted html to a string, I'm able to use replace in that string to wrap the text with a link, and I can put that html back into the ID it came from. My problem is that my replace method is going inside existing links on the page. This could create nested links, which is a problem. Does anyone out there know how to prevent the re...
