I'm not clear what I'm doing wrong in my cont check in bb-hosts, and I
was hoping someone could help me out. My regular expression works fine
in perl: perl -e '$text = join "", <>; if ($text =~
/assetID="[0-9A-Fa-f]{8}"/) { print "OK\n"; } else { print "NotOK\n"; }'
< /tmp/vodbrowser.php
However, bb-hosts line fails on the regex check: 10.100.104.53
seachange-vod # testip
cont=vod;http://mrteeny/vod/vodbrowser.php;assetID="[0-9A-Fa-f]{8}";
It *is* a webpage I'm trying to match... so the page starts with:
<html>
<head>
<title>VOD Interface</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=white>
<h3 align=center>Vod Interface</h3>
<pre>
assetID="00080002"
However, I really only care if the assetID is being displayed. Any
suggestions?
