I am currently creating a once off text parser for a rather large document that i need to strip out bits of information on certain lines. The line looks something like : "Adress line here, postcode, country Tel: +27 112233665 Fax: 221145221 Website: http://www.urlhere.com E-Mail: info@xxxxxxxxx TAGINCAPS: CAPS RESPONSE Tag2: blah" I need to retreive the text after each marker i.e Tel: Fax: E-Email: TAGINCAPS: ... I have the following regex /Tel:\s*(.[^A-z:]+)/ and /Fax:\s*(.[^A-z:]+)/ all these work as expected and stop just before the next Tag. However I run into hassels around the TAGINCAPS as the response after it is all in caps and i cant get the Regex to stop just before the next tag: which may be either all caps or lowercase. I cant seem to find the regex that will retreive all chartures just before a word with a : regalrdless of case. I have played around with the regex coach but still seem to be comming up short so i thought i would see if anybody can see anything i might have missed.
Any reason you can't match everything from TAGINCAPS through the end of the line, then once you have that stored in a string, split it on ":"'s to extract the pieces you want? Even elements would be the tag, odd would be the value...
