Case Sensitive Issue

[Brutal 164]

Hi guys,

 

I'm needing to search a phrase case INsensitive.

 

The user supplies a phrase... it goes into a variable

 

The bot scrapes a google results page, and that goes into a variable.

 

So, of course I tried using the $contains function to see if var1 was found in var2 ... but because of text case issues, it will report as not found when in fact it is there, it is just not in the same case.

 

So, can anyone provide me an example on how to achieve this in a case insensitive way?

 

I assume that this can be achieved using regex, I just don't know how to structure it to work with my variable.

Put this at the start of the string (?i)

Thanks Zap ... Can you give me an example?

#TheVar (?i)

Just add (?i) in the regex, and it will make matching case insensitive....

Any ideas on how I could achieve case insensitive exact match?

 

Example - Currently, my variable might have the phrase: today is a good day

 

And in the text it's searching, it defines: good day today is a nice phrase ... as a match because it has all of the words.
