[cfaussie] Re: Reg Ex or other

[Carl Vanderpal]

Cool thanks..got it working...but is there any reason why I can't do this on the fly and pump straight out to the same page, or is it quicker to create the templates and include them?

Shouldn't it be

<cfoutput>#REReplaceNoCase(x, "~([^~]+)~", "#SESSION[User].Member_\1#","ALL")#</cfoutput>

No, as I said already I was assuming you save the string as a .cfm file then include it, that's why I escaped the hashes.

To be absolutely clear the idea is to generate CFML code:

<cffile action="" file="temp.cfm" output="#REReplace(x, "~([^~]+)~", "##SESSION[User].\1##", "ALL")#">

<cfinclude template=" temp.cfm">

You update temp.cfm (whatever you call it, one distinct file for each user template) whenever the user updates the template (rarely) and then use it to generate your messages (frequently) nice and fast without any REs or anything else that would take a lot of processing (similar to what Fusebox 4 does with circuit code).  You might want to tweak the matching _expression_ in the RE to tighten up the security in case your user writes ~FirstName#<cffile action=""
