rereplace syntax

[billybrag]

Hi all,

How could i strip anything from a string between two [] ?

I looked at rereplace - but i dont know how to look for braces and their contents

Start by escaping the braces, then go from there.

You could find the position of the "[" - opening bracket and the "]" closing bracket. Then use the RemoveChars(string, start, count) function, where start is the position of your "[" and end is calculated as position of "]" in the string minus the position of "[". If you want a more detailed explanation, post your code and we will help you.

incase it helps anyone I managed to adapt the code i found for stripping html and got this to work

<cfset newTitle = Trim(REReplace(Title,'\[[^\]]*\]','','all'))>
