Can't you just use left and right? Like:
<cfset FORM.ccnumber = trim(FORM.ccnumber)> <cfset leftnumbers = left(FORM.ccnumber, len(FORM.ccnumber) - 4)> <cfset rightnumbers = right(FORM.ccnumber, 4)> ______________________ steve oliver atnet solutions, inc. http://www.atnetsolutions.com -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Fongemie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 13, 2002 5:14 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Split up a credit card number? Need regex handout! Hello everyone, I need to take a given form field (numbers) and break it into 2 parts. Then insert one part, and cfmail the other. The number can be different lengths. For example: 3939 4444 4444 2222 may get passed by a form field. I need to insert the 3939 4444 4444 to a DB, and cfmail the 2222. I must admit that I'm stuck on this one, I can't even get a good working start. I can take the number and replace the first 4 digits with nothing, which will give me the second half. But then how to get the first 4 digits? Am I going about this the wrong way? Is there a better approach?
