Strange, when I tried to find this thread in OE instead of on Google, it was
up before a 2007-06-22 post instead of at the bottom of the list. Wierd.
I have to say that, on the occations when I ask for help on a REGEX and the
answer comes back from someone far more expert than me (doesn't take much),
looking as horrendous as Steve's solution (no offence meant), I feel sort of
vindicated. One always suspects that one's problem should be solvable with a
really short clever bit of regex. One forgets that the really clever stuff
looks like Steve's solution!
