Re: combine two-part regex test

Would this work?

m[(?s:<tr.+Security Code Matched.+N/A.+</tr>)]

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The problem is that if a different row in the table contains "N/A", it will still match.	[reply]

And if you tighten the regex to this? `m[(?smx: Security \s+ Code \s+ Matched \s* </th> \s* <td> \s* N/A)];` [download] The only concern I see here is the possibility of the `<td>` having attributes?

That's probably as good as it can get without grabbing a real parser or doing it in 2 parts. The only trouble with this approach is that it's very vulnerable to changes in the td/th stuff, which is why I was trying to key off just the row markers.	[reply]
