First of all, you might want to put more than one %.... probably like %%% Reason is, asp users <% %> like php uses <? ?>.
Just a precaution. You almost had the regex right. /%[a-z]+%/i Thans means, starts with a %, can match a-z, at least once (the + part) but as many times (greedy), then another %, and the i means case-insensitive. If you don't have that you'd have to do [a-zA-Z] instead. Also, will there be anything else in there besides just alpha chars? -Josh On Fri, 2 Jul 2004 13:56:29 -0500, George Lantz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Could someone help me with a regular expression?
