A minor bug in the bundle, that hopefully someone will be able to sort out soon. For now, if you write it instead as: open("<a href="http://www.myspace.com/"> http://www.myspace.com/</a>").read.match(/<form action=\"(.*?)\"/) you should have no problems. > David :) Haris ______________________________________________________________________ For new threads USE THIS: <a href="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com">textmate@lists.macromates.com</a> (threading gets destroyed and the universe will collapse if you don't) <a href="http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate"> http://lists.macromates.com/mailman/listinfo/textmate</a> </blockquote></div>
