Re: Trying to define a RE

Hi,

try this
                String result = null;
                String regexp = "<node-to-find>(.*?)</node-to-find>";
                RE r = new RE(regexp, RE.MATCH_SINGLELINE);
                if (r.match(str)) {
                    result = r.getParen(1);
                }

greetings Patrick
