Re: Re: reg-ex again

Sorry don't think I've explained this very clearly ! :-)) Start again .... People can enter a url with code in, this gets copied to a different server and read as an array ! At this point, the original server path needs to be added to the links in the copied file. The basics of this do actually already work - I just need the regex expression to find any files with "name.gif" (only allowing letters,numbers and _) and to find files "/pics/name.gif" - that is same rule but starting with a forward slash And at that point they all get replaced with the server path and written to the file ! > On Monday 29 April 2002 17:10, John Fishworld wrote: > > No the problem is I'm reading a file into an array and then need > > to change any of the links in the file from relative links to absolute > > links ! > > So that my lg_mode.gif gets the full server path in front of it > > http://www.ltest.com/lg_mode.gif > > > > and exactly the same with the other one but of course I don't won't > > > > http://www.test.com//folder/name.gif > > > > > > I'm trying to find files in my array > > > > for example > > > > ="lg_imode.gif" > > > > and > > > > ="/db/imodeklein/edgar-IMODE-1-.gif" > > > > > > > > I want to differentiate between the files with slash at the front and > > > > ones > > > > > > without so that > > > > I can add a server path ! > > > > but as usual I' m having problems with the correct regex > > Not sure if I understand your problem correctly. > > Define your server path as: http://www.myserver.com/some/path > (NB no > trailing slash) > > If the first char of file contains '/' use: > > "$server_path$file" > > otherwise use: > > "$server_path/$file" > > -- > Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk > Open Source Software Systems Integrators > * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * > > /* > Why is the alphabet in that order?
