I was trying to dig into this problem where Sebastian from the commandline
list was trying to read google groups with edbrowse.
There may be a few things going on with google groups, but one of them
that I could isolate as a short example is that they make use of the
inline regular expression style as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
ua=/</g;va=/>/g;
</script>
And the routine fails because the expression criteria is taken as a
literal, so the error is then "SyntaxError: unterminated regular
expressionliteral"
I know this is very similar to the string contents interpreted
as literals problems from months back, which is now fixed, right? Maybe
this one is harder
to deal with because it isn't delimited by quotes? It gets ambiguous to
know what /</ means.
Or should this work?
Or is it slipping my mind and we talked about the regex syntax back when
we talked about things like
document.writeln("<script language=JavaScript>document.writeln('Subject:
');<" + "/script>");
Note, I made
sure my tidy was up to date before trying this. When I say:
tidy -v
I get
HTML Tidy for Linux version 5.1.33
Any idea what can be done here?
thanks
Kevin
