It should take care of all instances you run across. If the raget attribute is in fact in a valid link, it either ends with a space or a closing bracket > <cfsavecontent variable="thetext"> <a href="http://mysite.com" target="_blank">1</a><br> <a href="http://mysite.com" target="_self" title="something">2</a><br> <a href="http://mysite.com">3</a><br> <a target=_blank href="http://mysite.com">4</a><br> <a href="http://mysite.com" target='_nada'>5</a><br> </cfsavecontent> <cfscript> function targetlinks(str, targ) { str = rereplacenocase(str,'( target=.*?)([ |>])',"\2","ALL"); str = replacenocase(thetext, "<a ", "<a target=""#targ#"" ", "ALL"); return str; } </cfscript> <cfoutput>#targetlinks(thetext, "_blank")#</cfoutput> The first rereplace strips out all target attributes. The second puts the attribute back with the value you pass to the function. It seems to work with everything I've thrown at it thus far. ~Bobby -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, September 03, 2005 3:57 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Trying to ensure links have a target attribute Okay, this is what I got, and it works, but I'm wondering if there's a way to combine all three replaces into one: <cfset text = REReplaceNoCase(text,'target="[^"]*"',"","ALL")> <cfset text = REReplaceNoCase(text,"target='[^']*'","","ALL")> <cfset text = REReplaceNoCase(text,'target=[^>|^ ]*',"","ALL")> <cfset text = ReplaceNoCase(text,"<a ",'<a target="_blank" ',"ALL")> What do you think? Also, if you see something wrong with these, please let me know. I've tested and it seems to work right, but I don't know if it might actually get something I'm not thinking of.
