Faulty regular expression for seconds extraction - but cannot see what is wrong... :S

JavaScript

Hi there, in my site I have a console which optionally outputs any sql queries run, plus various debugging info. Nw when running the query which I want to see the timeout info of - the following snippet of script is used.
The result being that the sql query’s info is not always sent via xml. The following code attempts to parse the sql string, to get the line mentioning the time taken to process - saving that to rcnt. Then if match() does not return null, it is supposed to get the time taken in seconds. note the two lines in bold below. after this it is supposed to replace a %SEC% flag in the innerHTML of the topmost field (id cntf) in the data table.

                    if (sql != undefined) {
[B]                        var rcnt = sql.match(/^line [\\d]+[\\/a-z\\. ]*[\\d]+.[\\d]+ seconds.$/mgi);[/B]
                        [I]salert(sql);[/I]
                        [I]salert(rcnt);[/I]
                        if (rcnt !== null) {
[B]                            var ncnt = rcnt[0].match(/[\\d]*.[\\d]*/g);[/B]
                            document.getElementById("cntf").innerHTML.replace(/%SEC%/g,ncnt[0]);
                        }
                    }

the value of sql is shown below, returned from ajax - followed by the value of rnct (which is shown to be null):

‘0’ …

However, I am struggling to match the bold, italic and underlined with regular expressions. What am I doing wrong here? 0o

Hi,

So in other words, in this string:

Line 829 in /var/www/performatix.co/production/scripts/ajax_services.php executed in 0.089391946792603 seconds.

you want to match:

0.089391946792603

Is that correct?

Is it just this one case you are trying to match, or is there a pattern (e.g. “{Line no} {file path} executed in {time} seconds.”) whereby you are trying to get the time?

yes pullo - it was just one case… i resolved it by making sure it was that line and specific ajax request then repaired the regex match as follows…
issue was resolved by changing the regex matches and adjusting the javascript to:

                    if (sql != undefined) {
                        var rcnt = sql.match(/(line 829[a-z\\/_. ]+)[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+/g);
                        if (sql.toLowerCase().indexOf('line 829')==-1) salert(sql);
                        //salert(rcnt);
                        if (rcnt !== null) {
                            var text = document.getElementById("cntf").innerHTML;
                            document.getElementById("cntf").innerHTML = text.replace(/%SEC%/g,rcnt[0]);
                        }
                    }

Glad you got it sorted out.
Thanks for taking the time to report back :slight_smile:
