[JS] RegExp tabulation Code

[Liphou]

Hello,

Hello, stupid question, I cannot find the correspondence of the recipient of the right indentation tab (^y/~y) for an expression in RegExp? (instead of the point)

lesPaginations[test01].paragraphs[0].contents.replace(/.\d+/g,''));

Thanks

Hi Liphou,

what should work in this case with exactly this special character:

lesPaginations[test01].paragraphs[0].contents.replace(/.\d+/g,"\u0008"));

Note: With this code you will not change the actual contents of the addressed paragraph.

You "only" return the changed contents.

Ok. Got it. It should be the right indent tab followed by any number of digits:

var searchPattern = new RegExp( "\u0008" +"\\d+" , "g" );
lesPaginations[test01].paragraphs[0].contents.replace( searchPattern ,"" );

But as I already said:

You do not change something in the target paragraph.

Unhappy! do not move to the original text !! 😉

Indeed, I retrieve the text to do another search in another document.

Thank you so much

Malheureux ! ne pas bouger au texte original !! 😉

Effectivement, je recupère le texte pour y faire une autre recherche dans un autre documents.

Merci Beaucoup

Yes, I had a big problem on a loop and wanted to rule out this imprint in the script to reduce sources of errors.
