String Trigger 2.0

Hello Members of this best Forum
i have a question please
for example if i have a long string
and i want to extract a text between two tag
what i can do to make that?
note :
i know that there is a
StringRegExp function
it's do that work
but it result is be as an array
i want the result to be a string
is there any function on autoit can do that?
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
 
I wrote myself a script to follow Google Maps Polyline encoding steps: https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/utilities/polylinealgorithm, and that works (although I think that it's a bit janky), but now I'm having issues getting the output.
 
When I run the script, all the points come out correctly in the console, and even when they're the only things that I log, it displays them fine. However, I'm adding each point into a variable to return all of them at once at the end, fully formatted, and it's only taking the very first point. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, as it seems fine.
 
When run with the default value, it should output this at the end: Custom Polygon: _p~iF~ps|U_ulLnnqC_mqNvxq`@
But instead I'm just getting this: Custom Polygon: _p~iF
 
I know that it's reaching the string combination lines because it's logging the data before it (and even if a put log AFTER the $sPolygon &= $aPoints[0], it's logged fine).
 
Here's my full code (problem is lines ~209 - 234, search "$sPolygon &= $aPoints[1]"):

I've tried:
$sPolygon &= $aPoints[0] & $aPoints[1] ;---- $sPolygon = $sPolygon & $aPoints[0] & $aPoints[1] ;---- $sPolygon = $sPolygon & String($aPoints[0] & $aPoints[1]) ;---- $sPolygon = String($sPolygon) & String($aPoints[0]) & String($aPoints[1]) ;---- $sPolygon &= $aPoints[1] $sPolygon &= $aPoints[0] ;----  
I'm sure it's something basic that I'm overlooking, but I don't understand why it's not combining the strings. 
Also, unrelated, why doesn't $LogFile = FileOpen($File, 9) create the directory/ file if they don't exist? 9 should be $FO_CREATEPATH (8) + $FO_APPEND (1)?
Thanks!

Hi All,
I'd like to replace 'COMMA' with ',' for example:
$myString = "COMMA" StringRegExpReplace($myString, 'COMMA', ',') Now I've tried escaping the ',' in various ways unsuccessfully, such as:
'[,]'
"[,]"
'\,'
[,] seems to work in the pattern, I just can't figure out how to use it in the replace, and it seems everyone online is only interested in removing/replacing commas lol.
I also tried creating and using a variable as the replacement but also didn't work:
$myComma = "," $myString = "COMMA" StringRegExpReplace($myString, 'COMMA', $myComma) I'm sure it's super simple if someone could point me in the right direction - thanks.

Hello, I am getting this error message when running my script:
Case $aButiD[0] To $aButiD[$iTotButtons - 1]
Case ^ ERROR
Error:  Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.
 
The script's purpose is to read my ini file and create buttons for the sections and section contents.
The first part of the script creates buttons for the sections of the ini, once you click on the section button it should open another set of buttons of all the contents under the section
In this case, the section in the .ini file is called "TPA"
on the Func flavorco()
It opens the contents of "TPA" into buttons.
Right now, the section it is reading is determined by $sSection.
It is only when I try to change $sSection = "TPA"
to
$sSection = $flavorco
that the error starts to appear

Any help is much appreciated!  Thanks.
My guess is that $Button isn't an actual string??  Whenever I use msgbox it shows up the string exactly, no numbers attached.  So i'm not sure whats going on here.

Hello again,
I'm trying to use the FileMove function to rename a bunch of text files.
Some of the files have "_1" at the end of their name, for example, "File123_1.txt". I want to remove the "_1" so it would become "File123.txt".
What I currently have...
        FileMove($sSource & "\*_1.txt", $sDestination & "\*.txt")
But since I'm using a wildcard, it doesn't appear to be working. I think it's just replacing .txt with .txt. Am I going about this the wrong way? How can I use wildcards and still accomplish this?
Any help is greatly appreciated ^__^
