I'll definitely keep that code in mind. It looks really useful for barely-structured or unstructured data!
My text files are so highly structures that I'm using "struct" to parse the text. The fields are all on fixed boundaries. It's just that the text format chosen represents fields in strange ways, like the example I gave of dates having 8 digits and no separators. In this case the validator is really helpful to parse the date format for me on the fly. -- Joe -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
