Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Programming Discussion : Regex question numerical sequence

[Hayworth]

I'm no good at regexp's. I am working in Adobe Dreamweaver cS4. It can manage regular expressions. I am preparing an ebook and I need to resolve this problem:

I have this numerical sequence:

<span class="txt">97

<span class="txt">98

<span class="txt">99

<span class="txt">100

<span class="txt">101


I need to change to change to

<span class="txt">097

<span class="txt">098

<span class="txt">099

<span class="txt">100

<span class="txt">101


I need to add an 0 before all the numbers with two digits.

I need to Find/Replace about 7.000 cases.

I'm very newbie in regex. I need the code to put in the field to shearch and the code to put in the field to replace.

Thank you in advance.

Find: <span class="txt">([0-9]{2})\b
Replace: <span class="txt">0$1

[0-9] matches any number
{2} limits it to exactly 2 numbers
\b matches the end of a string

It works perfectly for me.

Thanks so much! you (and regex) just saved me several tons hours of work!
