ISAPI Converting URL value

Tue, 05 Aug 2008 04:34:00 GMT

HI abigail, i'm not sure, but i think you have this backwards. isapi_rewrite takes the incoming url & converts it to a physical url _before_ iis/cf/php etc gets ahold of it. my guess is that you really want to convert:
http://127.0.0.1/imp/www/889

Minify markup

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 01:29:00 GMT

I have a regex I did in PHP a while back to minify markup. By minify, I mean it removes line breaks, indents, uneccessary white space, comments, etc from my HTML when served to the client (do a view source on google's homepage to see something similar).

Yes, it's very easy to get carried away with overthinking regex - I've

required, but I couldn't think of any - once linebreaks are preserved

Peter,

I just may be overthinking this. heh. I am going to toss your idea in and

additional modifictions elsewhere in varScoper.

Why not?

If you need the original text (e.g. for showing context of errors),
then you just create a copy of the text and work on that, then refer

ahead / look behind may be an answer.

Find ampersands that are not part of an entity

Fri, 02 May 2008 07:07:00 GMT

Yes, you can do it using a regex construct called a lookahead (in this case a negative lookahead), like so:

&(?!nbsp;)

To only match ampersands that aren't part of any entity (not just ), you can use this:

&(?!#?\w+;)

\1 and 000

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 09:55:00 GMT

Shouldn't you be writing "200,000" (or "200 000") anyway?

So use "\1,000" (or "\1 000")?

Alternatively, use Java regex so you can do lookbehinds, to effectively just
replace K with 000. ie:
