More noob - RegEx help....

Report · Aug 14, 2007

I have syntactically improper markup on almost 100 pages in a javascript
line -

<script>
variable = "somevalue"X""
</script>

It should be

<script>
variable = "somevalue","X"
</script>

The trick is, on each page, "X" would have a different value. What would be
the REGEX to find the former and replace with the latter, substituting the
proper value?

This should work:

Find:
([a-zA-Z0-9_]*)\s*=\s*"([^"]*)"([^"]*)""
Replace:
$1 = "$2","$3"

Here's what I'm trying to match -

variable="First 100 Years Membership List "C"";

and it should read -

variable="First 100 Years Membership List ","C";

If that is what you need to match, it matched.
