Re: [Flashcoders] E4X, regexp and user input

2008-07-18 Thread Wagner Amaral 
That would be:
var re:RegExp = new RegExp(^ + userString);
_siteXML..*.( re.test( attribute(name)));

Note: I simplified the regex a little bit. The .* at the end is redundant,
and I removed the [] because /^New/ is different than /^[New]/ and the first
seems more like what you want. The first matches any string beginning with
New, and the later matches any string beginning with any of the following
characters: N, e, w.

You too, go read that book I mentioned in a thread yesterday! ;)

 Hi List,

 this code work fine for me, successfully return all records with attribute
 with first letter N:

 _siteXML..*.( /^[N].*/.test( attribute(name)));

 but i don't know, how integrate this code with user input (from input
 textfield) - for example user entered string New.

 Please help :)

 thanks

OK that's weird - this is a very specific question, you  just answered it at 
the same time sent the same or very very similar question to the list.  So 
please read my post I just sent titled, 'XML deep searching (may arrive 
before or after this one in weird server time)... seems like this may be 
exactly what I need.  Wow, that's odd.
