Question

I have tried regex searching for the following string:

<!--BeginPrio-->
I tried regex in OpenOffice to make sure I had it right, and it seems to take it as is, however in TWiki, it doesn't find the string. How should I state the regex search string in TWiki?

There is more I don't understand. I tried the SEARCH statement and it returns the correct result, however I tried searching via the WebSearch page and it won't find the string. I am running version 01 Feb 2003. I see that this current version here does find the string, of course using regular expression in the search form.

Answer

Search for "<\!\-\-BeginPrio\-\->". Lets try it out:

%SEARCH{ "<\!\-\-BeginPrio\-\->" regex="on" nosearch="on" }%

returns this:

Wow. Thanks. I am using what you see as a tag with a corresponding EndPrio tag so that I can extract all in between to consolidate in one page from many TWiki pages. Prio is for Priorities. I will see priorities from many people at once on one page. I could simply use STARTINCLUDE but this way I can mark anything I like on pages in a simple way. INCLUDE is once only in a page.

Not sure, looks like a limitation of the older TWiki release.
