I found the following site very helpful and easy to follow -- it taught me most of what I know about regex: http://www.regular-expressions.info |
Thanks eschwartz. Yeah, I'll be double probably triple checking any regex stuff for a while. Hey, that link. Do I have to buy Regex Buddy to use that link?
My bad. I looked a little deeper and can see that I don't have to.
