Oracle Apex Regular Expression for Directory Path (e.g. C:/New/Test)
Hi,
I am searching for Apex validation for directory path. exaples string should allow following strings:
(1) C:/Data/NewFile
(2) C:\Data\NewFile
Alphabet, Numbers, Colon (only at second location), Any slash (forward or backward).
However it should filter out multiple slashes, special characters, etc.
Maybe this article will help: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19509-01/820-4381/agxlo/index.html
Thank you,

Regular expression for LOV?
I have a list of strings in an LOV. I tried filtering it by typing in "^disk" in the search bar, which I hope will return a list of strings starting with "disk", but I failed.
Any idea on how to use regular expression for LOVs? Thanks!HI Buffalo,
i have a select list item in my page1 named :P1_EMPNAME with lov query value
select ename as d, ename as r from emp WHERE EGEXP_LIKE(ename,:P1_SEARCH) or :P1_SEARCH IS NULL
i have a Search text box in my page1 name :P1_SEARCH
When i run the page, by default all the empnames will display in the lov list item
i have given ^buffalo in the text seach item and clicked the submit button ,it shows the Employee buffalo in my list item lov.
If you want all the entries that start with S, search for ^s
End with R, use r$
please try this link http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28424/adfns_regexp.htm

Regular Expression for PathName???
Anyone have a "ready to go" regular expression for detecting a pathname?
for example I need to detect the following:
myfile.txt
./myfile.txt
../my-file.ini
/home/my-home/myFile.foo
etc.
Now, in a perfect world, it could also do Windows (or ANY OS for that matter) pathnames (though this is not terrbibly important for my case at least).
TIA,

String[] pieces = regex.parts(files[i]);
if (pieces != null)
System.out.println(" path : " + pieces[0] + " file : " + pieces[1] + " ext : " + pieces[2]);
I will leave it to you as an excercise to add support for spaces in path names, different separator characters, etc.. -

Regular Expression for a Person's Name
Hi,
I am using the org.apache.regexp package and trying to find the regular expression for a person's name. It allows only the alphabetic string.
I tried [a-zA-Z]+. But this also accepts the thing like "BUSH88", which is not what I want...
Can anybody help me figure this out?
Thanks in advance,

^[a-zA-Z]+$
the ^ represents the start of the String and the $ represents the end.

How to write the regular expression for Square brackets?
Hi,
I want regular expression for the [] Square brackets.
I have tried to insert in the below code but the expression not validate the [] square brackets.
If anyone knows please help me how to write the regular expression for [] Square brackets.
private static final Pattern DESC_PATTERN = Pattern.compile("({1}[a-zA-Z])" +"([a-zA-Z0-9\\s.,_():}{/&#-]+)$");Thanks
RaghavSince square brackets are meta characters in regex they need to be escaped when they need to be used as regular characters so prefix them with \\ (the escape character).

What is the regular expression for the end of a story?
Forgive me if this is wrong forum for asking this, but I'm trying to use the Find command using GREP and I need to know the regular expression for the end of a story. (Or, the last character of a story.) Thanks in advance.
I'd try search for .\z (that's a dot in front) which ought to find the very last character in the story, and replace with $0 and your additional text.
You know you can use a keyboard shortcut to move your cursor to the end of any story, right? Ctrl + End on Windows, Cmd + End, I think, on Mac. Unless you want to do this to every single story in the document, I would think you might be just as well off to put your text on the clipboard, put the cursor in the story and hit the key combo followed by Ctrl/Cmd + V to paste. -
Regular Expression For Dreamweaver
I still haven't had the time to really become a professional when it comes to regular expressions, and sadly I am in need of one an finding it difficult to wrap my head around.
In a text file I have hundreds of instances like the following:
{Click here to visit my website}{http://www.adobe.com/}
I need a regular expression for Dreamweaver that I can run within the "Find and Replace" window to switch the order of the above elements to:
{http://www.adobe.com/}{Click here to visit my website}
Can anyone provide some guidance? I'm coming up short due to my lack of experience with regular expressions.
Thank you in advance!So you have a string that starts { and goes until the first }. Then you have another string exactly the same. And you want to swap them. I'm not making any assumption that the second one has to look like a URL (that's a whole other minefield, but perhaps you could do something simple like it must start with http).
You don't specify how your text file is divided up, have you got this as a complete line to itself, or is it just a huge block of text? Preferably as individual lines.
I don't have Dreamweaver, but this worked for me in Notepad++
Find: ^{(.*?)}{(.*?)}$
Replace with: {\2}{\1}
My file looked like this:
{Click here to visit my website}{http://www.adobe.com/}
{some other site}{http://www.example.com/foo}
And doing a Replace All ended up like this:
{http://www.adobe.com/}{Click here to visit my website}
{http://www.example.com/foo}{some other site} -
