Reg Expression in CF 2

[toyt78]

I want to put in a reg expression to condense my conditions below. Instead of having this:

<cfif #cgi.PATH_INFO# CONTAINS "mydirectory/dirOne/pagehere.cfm">
&gt; <a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>[/URL]
</cfif>
<cfif #cgi.PATH_INFO# CONTAINS "mydirectory/dirOne/anotherOne.cfm">
&gt; <a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>[/URL]
</cfif>
<cfif #cgi.PATH_INFO# CONTAINS "mydirectory/dirOne/next.cfm">
&gt; <a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>[/URL]
</cfif>

I can make a reg expression but it not working:

<cfif #cgi.PATH_INFO# CONTAINS "mydirectory/dirOne/*.cfm">
&gt; <a href="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>[/URL]
</cfif>

Please advise.

<cfset x = "mydirectory/dirOne/">
<cfif findNoCase("mydirectory/dirOne/",x)>
yep
<cfelse>
nope
</cfif>

We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.

since that's what toyt want to accomplish, your solution WILL NOT work

Since you are looking for the .cfm files, try something like this

<cfif ReFindNoCase("(mydirectory/dirOne/){1}", #cgi.path_info#, 1) AND ReFindNoCase("(.cfm){1}",#cgi.path_info#, 1)>
&gt; <a href="

http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>

<cfelse>
not found!!!!.....
</cfif>

this will look for the directory mydirectory/dirOne/ and look for .cfm extension. there may be a better way to write this as well.
hope it helps...

that was paraphrased mr smarty pants, if you're going to hold a grudge for showing you up earlier you could at least post a solution.

what he said was if i'm in ANY cfm page in mydirectory/dirOne then make the hyperlink go to sun.com

since this script will only run in .cfm pages its moot to include the "*.cfm"

<cfif findNoCase("mydirectory/dirOne/",cgi.PATH_INFO>
&gt; <a href="

http://www.sun.com/">Info</a>

</cfif>

Thanks it works great.

I am trying to figure out what it is doing here:
<cfif ReFindNoCase("(mydirectory/dirOne/){1}", #cgi.path_info#, 1) ...

Please explain especially the {1} part.

 

[TruthInSatire]

{x} match must occur exactly x times

here is a good tutorial on regex

as he said,
<cfif ReFindNoCase("(mydirectory/dirOne/){1}", #cgi.path_info#, 1)

looks for the #cgi.path_info# string and tries to find {X} exact occurence of whatever is placed within "()"

hope it helps...
