<body>
<p> There is an: B C 1 2 3</p>
<p> There is an: 1 2 3</p>
</body>
</html>
It first highlighted the "an: B" and then next highlighted the "an: " since we specified the * which allows 0 occurrences of the [a-zA-z] set.
So regular expressions seem to work just fine on a Mac.
Would someone with access to Windows please try this exact example and let me know if it works correctly or not. |
Kevin, and what do you get in your example when you just search for [a-zA-Z]* ?
