I was sure I tried this, but I tried this again right now and... IT WORKS! Not sure who and how long you guys are following this thread, but I've been taring hairs out on and off for months on this thing. Apparently, the whole RegEx thing worked too, it was just this problem that made my script not work. The callback.
Anyway, I'll finish off this script with a few more things I want to add to it, and I'll publish. Thanks Ivan and everyone else who helped.
