I have a probelm with pattern matching.

I get the following debug:


Debug: [2007/06/30 19:42:21] Failed Test

Debug: [2007/06/30 19:42:21] ---------------------
Debug: [2007/06/30 19:42:21] Rollback execution of section: Tests

The pattern is:


<Pattern>
RegExp <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3"\
cellspacing="0">\
<tr valign="top" class="contentr">\
<td width="24%">Field 1</td>\
<td width="32%">Field 2</td>\
<td width="24%">Field 3</td>\
<td width="20%">Field 4</td>\
</tr>
</Pattern>

<Section While>
Name Parish
<Pattern>
RegExp <tr valign="top">\
<td class="content">{$field1} ({$link})</td>\
<td class="content">{$field2}</td>\
<td class="content">{$field3}</td>\
<td class="content">{$field4}</td></tr>
</Pattern>



The HTML code is:


<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0">
<tr valign="top" class="contentr">
<td width="24%">Field 1</td>
<td width="32%">Field 2</td>
<td width="24%">Field 3</td>
<td width="20%">Field 4</td>
</tr>

<tr valign="top">
<td class="content">Content 1 (itemdetail.asp?item_id=329)</td>
<td class="content">Content 2</td>
<td class="content">Content 3</td>
<td class="content">Content 4</td>
</tr>


It seems the pattern is adding / and \ to the pattern and therefore not finding a match. But I'm not sure.

Appreciate any help

Try to add *, new line can cause pattern fail

<Pattern>
RegExp <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3"\
cellspacing="0">*\
<tr valign="top" class="contentr">*\
<td width="24%">Field 1</td>*\
<td width="32%">Field 2</td>*\
<td width="24%">Field 3</td>*\
<td width="20%">Field 4</td>*\
</tr>*
</Pattern>

<Section While>
Name Parish
<Pattern>
RegExp <tr valign="top">*\
<td class="content">{$field1} ({$link})</td>*\
<td class="content">{$field2}</td>*\
<td class="content">{$field3}</td>*\
<td class="content">{$field4}</td>*</tr>
</Pattern>
