Regex ?

[former_member194669]

I know this is not the right forum, but the regex is part of PHP page i am using one of WebDynpro screens.

I am using the following RegEx for finding sub matches of a date. But the third sub match is giving only 2 characters.

Please find Regex i am using

 (0?[1-9]|1[012])[- /.](0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])[- /.](19|20)?[0-9]{2} 

and using date as 12/12/2008 , but in sub matches i am getting the values as 12 12 20

"text-116 =  (0?[1-9]|1[012])[- /.](0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])[- /.](19|20)?[0-9]{2} 
   data : regex         type ref to cl_abap_regex,
   concatenate text-116 space into p_regex.
    condense p_regex.
    create object regex
      exporting
        pattern     = p_regex
        ignore_case = ''.
* For REGEX match
    matcher = cl_abap_matcher=>create(
                   pattern     = p_regex
                   ignore_case = ' '
                   table       = i_dates ).

    lt_result = matcher->find_all( ).
    if lines( lt_result ) gt 0.

Any info?

hi! try this

\b(0?[1-9]|1[012])[- /.](0?[1-9]|[12][0-9]|3[01])[- /.]((?:19|20)?[0-9]{2})\b

you're welcome. regex is magic, isn't it?
