Colonoscopy

[shelane]

I am finding that since I've started using paren syntax, old pages I load
with colon syntax almost hurts my eyes. The manual process of changing is
quite something. I think a few reg exp replacements with Bbedit would make
it easier, but it's something I suck at.

Something for:

[field: 'name']

Replacing [field: to [field( is easy, but doing it with the 'anycharacters
between quotes' and adding the ) after is not so easy.

Has anyone being working on something like this?

Obviously, there are tags that have attributes with - preceeding them that
changes things, but..

I use this pattern, run it multiple times until there are no more
matches. Be careful, use "replace and find again" instead of "replace
all" so you can examine each match carefully!

Search
        (?si)(\()?(\w+?): *(.+?)((?(1)\)|([;\]])))
Replace
        \2(\3)\5
       
       
The end result can contain unnecessary parenthesis, clean up with this:
Search
        \((\(.*?\))\)
Replace
        \1

Yesterday my hosting service relocated my servers. As a result my serves
were taken down, moved to another location and restarted. HERE is my
problem.

The [Reference] Tag stopped working properly.

Here is the code that always worked fine:
Variable: 'HTML_text_Map'= (Reference: (Global: ('html_' + $event_id)));

The global is there I can see it... And this edited code works fine.

Variable: 'HTML_text_Map'= (Global: ('html_' + $event_id));

As You can see I simply removed the [Reference] Tag...

Is there some Lasso server setting that may cause this issue?

MS Server 2003
Lasso 8.5
FileMaker SA v8

Thanks for any ideas.
Michael
