Normally I would just use boundaries (\b) for this, but since the current platform is running CF5, that's not an option. For all you regex people out there, all I want to do is test a string for the existence of any bad words.
<cfset badWordList = "lots,of,bad,words,here" /> <cfloop list="#badWordList#" index="wordKey"> <cfset attributes.replacedString = reReplaceNoCase(attributes.replacedString, "([^\s]+)?#wordKey#([\s]?)", "**CENSORED**", "all")> </cfloop> Which works ok, but if the word is part of another larger word, I would like it to be left alone, and currently it is not. Any ideas? TIA.
