I am tring to get JScript to match a set of characters in a string.
The
characters are special characters, And I am having trouble working
out the
format for correct match.
Can someone tell me what the correct search
string is for matching ".AX"
and "^AX". Thanks.
Here is a simple
test JScript to match characters using the regular
_expression_ and search
functions.
// JScript file
// Match Exclude text in Ticker
String.
// Match ".ax"
// Match "^ax"
var r,re;
//Exclude =
"[.]ax"; //Seems to work
Exclude = "^ax"; //Does not work
Ticker =
"t^axest.axssbsn";
re = new RegExp(Exclude,"i"); //Create Search
_expression_
r = Ticker.search(re);
if (r == -1) result = "No
Match"
else result = "Match"
WScript.Echo( Ticker + "\n" + re + "\n" +
result + " @ " + (r+1)
);
