Perhaps you could have offered a better, non-regex solution to the op and pointed out the fact that regex was not
necessary rather than trash in public someone who seems to prefer using regex more than you, but was actually
offering his help rather than just criticizing someone elses scripting methods which he didn't like.
I
did offer a more practical non-regex solution, and I
did point out regex was unnecessary both in the first couple lines. Read my post again
. And I wasn't bashing him as I already mentioned, I think that's pretty obvious by my choice of words. Again it comes down to good scripting practice. If you don't want to partake in it fine, but you shouldn't be upset if someone criticizes you for it. Perhaps this topic ought to be locked before it gets out of hand.
