Got something wrong on StringRegExp

[Underdogger]

Hello, Everybody

I found StringRegExp got something wrong on XP...

It appeared error msg..

Subscript used with non-Array variable..

But it can run normally on my x64 win7 system...

#include <IE.au3>
$oHTTP = _IECreate("http://invoice.etax.nat.gov.tw/", 0, 0, 1, 0)
$HTMLSource = _IEDocReadHTML($oHTTP)
$open = FileOpen("test.txt",1)
FileWrite("test.txt",$HTMLSource)
FileClose($open)
_IEQuit($oHTTP)

$getDate = StringRegExp(FileRead("test.txt"), '<h2>(.*?)</h2>', 3)
MsgBox(0,"",$getDate[0])

Very simple code..

But cannot run on XP system..

But It can run normally on my computer..

Underdogger,

Check to see that you actually have a file (test.txt). The error message is telling you that $getDate is not an array.

Underdogger,

Can you just use the standard forum font in future please - there is no need to embolden and colour your text.

Your regex pattern is wrong for that web page, this is the corrected line.

$getDate = StringRegExp(FileRead("test.txt"), '<H2>(.*?)</H2>', 3)

Unless you tell it to be case insensitive, the pattern has to match exactly, the H2 and /H2 are in upper case on the page downloaded.

Yes, It's absolutely solved!!

Best Regard.

Curious that it works on one platform and not the other!

It didn't work on my Windows 7 x64 machine, so I'm not sure how it worked on his.

I don't know why it get this value "<h2> </h2>"....in my system..

but get "<H2> </H2>" in my the other XP system

Regardless, if you want to cover all bases use a case insensitivity assertion on the regexp, like this

'(?i)<H2>(.*?)</H2>'

Strangely enough, when I view that page's source in both IE and Chrome, all the HTML tags are in lower case, so I'm not sure why they're in upper case when running the script.

Yes, this is the great method!!
