Error due to forced new line by markee on 02-04-2008 at 12:45 PM
I was writing a regex for a script and got an "Error: Expected ')' in regular expression (code: -2146823268)" and the only reason I can find for this is that the regex goes over multiple lines (yes I know it is long, but it should be specific. I did make it as short as possible). This would not have happened in build <4.5 as there was no forcing on to new lines. I understand that you are trying to help with this feature but I personally find it a hinderence, especially in this situation.
Just to quench the curiosity of people, I was writing a regex for capturing Plus! tags, but I can't even test it properly in the script engine.... (luckily I have other methods 
)

If the regex is in a string literal, just do something like this:
code:
regex = "part 1"
+ "part 2"
+ "part 3"
+ "part 4"
+ "part 5"

quote:But it wasn't like that, I made it between a couple of slashes. I dont think I should need to change my work anyway, if I really wanted to I could just use a different text editor for those couple of lines and plus wouldn't worry about it (unless I modified them) (don't quote me as I'm not 100% sure of this).
