Hi, I have what I hope is a simple text processing question in R.
I want to replace every instance of http:\\XXX.com with "WEBSITE" When I try sub('(^http://)(.com$)', 'WEBSITE', <filename>);, it only substitutes http:// and .com so it looks like WEBSITEXXXWEBSITE How do I get it to match the pattern "http:// . . . . .com" and substitute the whole phrase? Thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Replacing-a-string-tp4648368.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
