How does one make a regex case-insensitive?

[DavidJCobb]

In JavaScript, it's /pattern/i, but seeing as regexes in NAML don't use delimiters like /, I'm not really sure how it'd be done.

This is a good request and we will implement this now (please give us one or two days to have this change released to all servers). Basically, we will add a new parameter called case_insensitive to all regex commands (e.g., regex_replace_all, etc.)  just like this:

<n.regex_replace_all. pattern="abc" replacement="def" case_insensitive="true">
     test test test test 
</n.regex_replace_all.>

I will let you know when this is released. Thanks for the feedback.

No prob, and thanks for the update. :)

We just realized you can start the regex with "(?i)" to turn on case insensitive matching. Example:

(?i)a|b|c

So there is no need for the extra parameter mentioned in my other reply.

(?i)?

Oh, it's Java regexes, right? Thanks for the tip!

Yes, you can use java.util.regex as your reference.
