Regexp problem when parsing a string
I'm a beginner and I was trying to write a program to parse recursively all file names in a directory specified as parameter. The problem is that I get a None printed to stdout when a file is positively matched. While when the file name doesn't match the regexp the output seems ok. C:\c:\python.exe g:\a.py sample foo - bar.txt , first part is: foo None skipping: foo.txt Instead I expect an output like this one: C:\c:\python.exe g:\a.py sample foo - bar.txt , first part is: foo None skipping: foo.txt Could anyone help me to figure out why None appears in the putput? Thanks and regards, Ale a.py Description: Binary data -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I get: Attachment not shown: MIME type application/octet-stream; filename a.py Posting attachments to Usenet is tricky. Many newsgroups filter out anything they think isn't text, or even any attachment at all. Some news clients do the same thing. If you have too much code to include directly in your post, then you should put it up on a website somewhere and just include the link. Without looking at your code, I'd guess that using regular expressions is the wrong approach. Perhaps you should look at the glob module, and possibly os.walk. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Regexp problem
Hi there! I have a problem and i'm not very good at regular expressions. I have a text like lalala lalala tiruri beldar-is-listening tiruri lalala I need a regexp to get the 'beldar' part, the format is 'something-is-listening', i need to get the something part, use it in my code, and then replace the whole 'something-is-listening' for another string.

There's something wrong with the code you are using the regex with. Post it and we may be able to help. Like Lawrence has said, it's likely to be that you are using m.group(1) with your match object instead of m.group(0) - the former gets the first group (i.e. everything between the first set of parens - in your case the wmv|3gp expression), whereas the latter will return the entire match.

In general, parsing HTML with regular expressions is a bad idea. Usually, you use something like BeautifulSoup to parse the HTML, extract the desired field, like the contents of title, then work on that. If you try to do this line by line with regular expressions, it will fail when the line breaks aren't where you expect. If you try to do a whole document with regular expressions, other material such as content in comments can be misrecognized. Try something like this: # Regular expression to extract group before (N) kreextractitem = re.compile(r'^(.*)\(\d+\)) pagetree = BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup(stringcontaininghtml) titleitem = pagetree.find({'title':True, 'TITLE':True}) if titleitem : titletext = .join(atag.findAll(text=True, recursive=True)) # Text of TITLE item is now in titletext as a string. groups = kreextractitem.search(titletext) if groups : goodsitem = groups.group(1).strip() # goodsitem now contains everything before () This approach will work no matter where the line breaks are in the original HTML.
