Title: Perl regular expression help
Post by: Fury on February 18, 2011, 04:53:02 am

I have this one config file where I need to use perl regular expressions, preferably the lookahead assertion.

A normal include syntax would be like this:

Code: [Select]

"\.(php|cgi|pl|shtml|shtm|html|htm)$"

And exclude syntax using lookahead from what I've understood should be like this:

Code: [Select]

"^(?!\.php|?!\.cgi|?!\.pl|?!\.shtml|?!\.shtm|?!\.html|?!\.html)"
Is this correct?

Never mind. I figured out something else that didn't involve regular expressions at all.
