Hi there,
I do work on following regex:
^(.*)_a[0-9](.*).htm$
This should be valid for "test_a9393.htm", but not for "9393.htm" as ther is no leading _a infront of the number.
Unfortunatelly this also works for the 9393.htm file. Can somebody give me a hint why the regex also is true for text that does not start with _a infront of the number?
Thank you for any help,
Merlin
