If you can always depend on Age: before the desired string, and what looks

That assumes that the age will be any combination of letters and numbers,

Of course, that function will then contain a nicely spaced easy-to-read piece

You're better off using regex-replace(){rereplace()} over replace() for more

Ok, firstly a slight semantics rant:
Strong and Bold are NOT synonymous - just because the default styling for the
Strong tag is bold does not mean that they are interchangeable.
Now that's out of the way, onto the regex side of things - your pattern will
match this:
reFindNoCase runs a fair amount slower than reFind.
Have you compared it against using inline case-insensitive flag, i.e:
refind( '(?i)regex' , text )
Would be interesting to know if that is any faster/slower than refindnocase.

if\s*\(.*?\s+.*?\)\s*\{

I posted a solved post but don't see it yet.
I can't use * because that flags it even if there's 0 spaces. I used + and it

I want to read the contents of all the .cfm files in a directory and return all
the href tags with the

Two questions:
1) What does the -~ do inside the []? I haven't seen that syntax before or I'm
incredibly rusty with my regex.
2) Is your regex minimally matching? I had always thought CF was a greedy match?
Thanks,

Actually, please ignore my last message. I have got it to work:
That range matches all the characters in the ascii chart except the control
characters. Same as saying give me all the Ascii characters from Ascii 32
(space) to Ascii 126 (_). I thought it was a bit more restrictive than the
dot operator.
In the [\w -~], the -w is actually redundant since
LOL! And here I was thinking the ~ was some kind of special character!
Sometimes if it looks like a tilde it's just a tilde :)
Thanks!

look for the string.

Sorry -- you only wanted it if productid was in a query string.
Try this
reFindNoCase(a[ ]+href[ -~]+\?[ -~]+productID=[ -~]+/a,inputString,
pos)

hurt.

Hi here is a regex that should do the job. It does a little more that you are
asking for. I felt like playing around with the regex.
cfsavecontent
variable=regex(a[^]*href=['](([^']*)?([^']ProductID=?([^']*)[^']*))[']([^]*)\/a)/cfsavecontent
cfsavecontent variable=text
a style=mystyle:as;
I would prefer the regular expression to do this. Can you show me how to do
what you are suggesting please?
