Re: getting all the image files in a HTML Inspection Member 1463488025-Oct-19 9:38 Member 14634880 25-Oct-19 9:38  Hi. Yes I have done that, but for some reason I still get the src:" in the web page HTML matches. And I don't know why. Do I have to ignore that Somehow with a /S? Regards Re: getting all the image files in a HTML Inspection Richard MacCutchan25-Oct-19 21:57 Richard MacCutchan 25-Oct-19 21:57  I guess that is correct, you will need to strip that manually somehow. Alternatively check if there is some other match that prefixes all the links that do not start with http(s).

Ana Re: Regular Expression To Extract Everything Including the String And Before The First Space Character Member 1457241530-Aug-19 7:06 Member 14572415 30-Aug-19 7:06  Hi, I went to the link "https://regexr.com/. However, I have not been able to figure out how to use it. Is there any documentation available for reference? Thanks, Ana Re: Regular Expression To Extract Everything Including the String And Before The First Space Character Richard MacCutchan30-Aug-19 21:42 Richard MacCutchan 30-Aug-19 21:42  Yes, the documentation is right there on the front page. You put your own test data into the box labelled "Text". Then add your regex in the box titled "Expression". The menus on the left point you to the documentation for all the regex types. What could be simpler?

Please see the example below. Order placed at the store. Order Date: 01/12/2017 This was completed. From the above string, I would like to extract the following. Order Date: 01/12/2017 Thanks, Ana Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard MacCutchan29-Aug-19 6:55 Richard MacCutchan 29-Aug-19 6:55  How about: Order Date: \d\d\/\d\d\/\d\d Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard Deeming29-Aug-19 7:04 Richard Deeming 29-Aug-19 7:04  Perhaps with a couple of extra \ds to cope with the four-digit year?

Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Member 1457241529-Aug-19 8:36 Member 14572415 29-Aug-19 8:36  Hi Richard, My string is like the following. Order placed at the store. Order Date: 01/12/2017 10:54 AM This was completed. I would like to pull "Order Date: 01/12/2017 10:54 AM" Hope this helps. Thanks, Ana Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard MacCutchan29-Aug-19 8:47 Richard MacCutchan 29-Aug-19 8:47  If you take my original Order Date: \d\d\/\d\d\/\d\d , plus Richard Deeming's reply to me \d\d for the rest of the year, then you should be able to work out what else is needed. And you can test your expression online at RegExr: Learn, Build, & Test RegEx[^].

Thanks Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard Deeming29-Aug-19 7:10 Richard Deeming 29-Aug-19 7:10  If you want to include the "Order Date: " in your extracted value: Order Date:\s*[^\s]+ If you just want the "01/12/2017", and you're using C#, then: (?<=Order Date:\s*)[^\s]+ (Other regular expression processors may also support "zero-width positive lookbehind" assertions. But Javascript, for example, doesn't.) "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Member 1457241529-Aug-19 8:00 Member 14572415 29-Aug-19 8:00  Hi Richard, Thanks for your response! Since I need the order date, I tried using "Order Date:\s*[^\s]+" per your post above, and it is pulling text after the date, time and AM/PM. So, I would like to pull everything before the date, time and AM/PM. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you! Ana Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Member 1457241529-Aug-19 8:03 Member 14572415 29-Aug-19 8:03  So, my string is like the following.

Thanks, Ana Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard Deeming29-Aug-19 8:50 Richard Deeming 29-Aug-19 8:50  You specifically said you wanted to extract the text up to the first space, and there is a space between 2017 and 10:54. And then another space between 10:54 and AM. If the date and time is always in the same format - which doesn't match the example you gave in your original message - then try something like: Order Date: \d\d\/\d\d\/\d\d\d\d \d\d:\d\d [AP]M Demo[^] "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Member 1457241529-Aug-19 9:12 Member 14572415 29-Aug-19 9:12  Hi Richard, Sorry for the confusion. I tried the expression that you posted and it works perfectly! Also, I would like to pull "Name is: Tia" from the following string: My friend's Name is: Tia She lives in Argentina. Thanks so much, Ana Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Richard Deeming29-Aug-19 9:53 Richard Deeming 29-Aug-19 9:53  Only one name, with no spaces? Name is: [^\s]+ Demo[^] "These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined." - Homer Re: Regex Expression to extract everything following a string and before a space Member 1457241529-Aug-19 10:05 Member 14572415 29-Aug-19 10:05  Hi, I tried "Name is: [^\s]+" but I am getting back the text after the space as well. How can I fix this? Thanks, Ana
