Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

a = s.match("\\\\(\\\\d+\\\\)")
Where a is either null or an array containing the result.

Thanks!
Any way to do this without returning the parenthesis?

I think "\\\\((\\\\d+)\\\\)" will work.

Almost. I get something like (2104),2104

That is the way that the match function works. Just pop the value off of the array that it returns.

OK, I see that now.
Cool! Thanks!
eta: I was doing an alert on the result. Didn't realize you could alert an array!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
vwbug, turning off trackbacks and pingbacks only applies the setting to new posts/pages - to turn them off on old posts:
- Go to the list of posts and tick the tickybox in the bar at the top of the list to select all the posts on the page.
- Look for "Edit" in the "Bulk Actions" dropdown, and click "Apply".
- Look for "Pings: Allow/Do Not Allow."
You'll have to do this once per page of posts, but it sure beats going into each one by hand.
Also, pingbacks suck.

Wordpress/Blogger question:
For some reason, if you add my Wordpress link to a blogroll on Blogger, it shows that my last post was 10 months ago. I don't think that was the last post I imported in my initial switchover, so I can't figure out why it's not updating.
I initially thought it might be a caching issue on the other person's site, but I just added the link to my old blog at Blogger and it's doing the same thing.
Ideas?
