Input only HEX (mac format)

[editcheck]

Hi, i need input a MAC number. Hex number

Example: 10-AB-FF-40-50-60

I need use the StringRegExpReplace.

From another trhead:

***

StringRegExpReplace($s_Text, "(-|^)([^-]{" & $iMinChars & "})([^-])", "12-3")

Hi, editcheck. It is great letting us know what you need. How about what you have tried on your own, and what difficulties you're running into?

We operate mainly on a "teach a man to fish" motto, rather than some forums where you put in a request and someone simply barfs up code for you

You mention the one-liner you got from another thread: what is not working, are you getting an error or just unexpected results, are you inputting the MAC manually or pulling it from a machine? The answer to all these questions, along with a reproducer of what you're trying to do, will go a long way in helping us help you

I wanna make a filter for the input box

So, wanna acept in the input only Hexadecimal with mask format.

Im using, for mask (write by PhoenixXL):

'?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

Now need use, maybe (write by Melba23):

'?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

 

But i dnt know how join both code. Sry for my english. Thz

Edit: wanna input manually the MAC code. Example, i wanna write: AA00AA00AA00 and show: AA-00-AA-00-AA-00 (did with format by PhoenixXL) and only accept Hexadecimal (so if write W then not write, maybe need use the Melba23 code)

So basically you want

$str = "AA00AA00AA00"

 

1. Check if the input string are hex chars: StringIsXDigit($str)

2. Every two chars add a "-": StringRegExpReplace($str,'[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}','$0$1-$2',5)

thz kyan the

2. Every two chars add a "-": StringRegExpReplace($str,'[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}','$0$1-$2',5)

is crashing, i dnt know why.

solve with:

If(Not StringIsXDigit(StringReplace($s_Text, '-', ''))) Then $s_Text = StringTrimRight($s_Text, 1)
$s_Text = StringRegExpReplace($s_Text, "(-|^)([^\-]{" & $iMinChars & "})([^\-])", "\1\2-\3")

@editcheck,

if StringIsXDigit($str) and StringLen($str) = 12 then $mac = StringRegExpReplace($str,'[0-9A-Fa-f]{2}','$0$1-$2',5)
