Hi Timothy Barton ,

Could you please post the regex Source expression in plain text, so we can test it?

… Jesús Prieto …

Sure. Here it is: 

(\bwww\.[-A-Z0-9+&@#/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[A-Z0-9+&@#/%=~_|])

And here's the one I did for URLs starting with "http(s)", which also doesn't work, which is basically the one provided in the examples, with the addition of the round brackets to try to get the $1 to work:

(\b(https?|ftp|file)://[-A-Z0-9+&@#/%?=~_|!:,.;]*[A-Z0-9+&@#/%=~_|])

Hi Timothy Barton ,

Try ticking the Ignore Case check box and don't forget to update the regex rule.

I've just realised that your regex only considers capital letters (A to Z). So the easiest way to fix it is to tick that check box.

PS: To test regexes, this link is good and free: http://regexstorm.net/tester

Best,

How daft of me. I actually thought the case sensitive box must be a mistake as I thought regexes were, by definition, case sensitive (i.e. [a-z] means any lower-case character). Perhaps SDL uses its own regex flavour. Anyway, rather than ticking the box, I added a-z to the rule, because otherwise if the source says www.rws.com and it gets translated as WWW.RWS.COM, presumably Studio won't flag it. Thanks for pointing this out.

Trados Studio uses .Net flavour, but we don't know everything behind the scenes…

For example, regexes in the Display Filter and Advanced Display Filter are non-case sensitive by default, so they work the other way around.

Glad you found the regex!
