    Thanks! Nice tool. Maybe you could incorporate some nice ajax callbacks to search regexlib's web service? (http://regexlib.com/WebServices.asmx) Then it'll be nearly perfect. :)

    That's a great idea, Jim -- I'll look into it.

    Have you considered releasing the source for this so someone can create a windows forms version easily?

    jhunter, there are already several Windows Forms tools for testing regular expressions. See http://sharptoolbox.com/categories/regular-expressions

    I don't think you can call something "better" without supplying some sort of test results. What is yours better than?

    Really useful, Derek - the best around. Could I request one addition, please: could you add the group name to the output please? ie. pattern:@"--\s*\[\s*TABLE\s*\(\s*(?<table>.*?)\s*\)\s*\]", text:"-- [ TaBle ( bob ) ]" - I'd like to see the captured group name - would you consider doing this, please?

    Works great. Just would like to see the results without having to scrool down (at least on my screen).

    Thanks. -- Richard

    Oops! My mistake. You just need to scroll down once and it all stays on screen.

    Great! -- Rik

    PS: Nice if you either underline the matches or made them bold or red.

    Hi, great regexp tester, thanks! I was trying to figure out why my matches weren't working, then I realized I was cutting and pasting text from Notepad into the Pattern section which includes a newline. Since my input didn't include a newline, the match failed.

    multiline and singleline are mutually exclusive. they have nothing to do with how many lines are in the target. multiline off set the eol and bol anchors to match eof and bof. singleline on lets . match all characters including /n

    good luck.

    OOPS - meant NOT mutually exclusive

    Echoing sky's comment. I actually had a situation that was solved (thanks to a MS MVP in an MSDN forum) by setting both SingleLine *and* MultiLine at the same time. So it does have its purpose.

    I was testing with the regex class in .net 2.0 using c# and my regex and source would not give me a match. This tool does give me a match. Any Ideas?
    Great tool though, i must add.
