Manage Conditions with Regular Expressions

When you set up Conditions with Manage, you can choose to Generate Components to automatically generate Regular Expressions for your JavaScript code.

See the following references for help understanding Regular Expressions:

• For a basic introduction to RegEx: http://www.zytrax.com/tech/web/regex.htm#intro  
• Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression

Regular Expressions are used for JavaScript. For more information on JavaScript, see the JavaScript Kit. This site provides comprehensive JavaScript tutorials and 400+ free scripts.

Regular Expressions provide a powerful way to match criteria.

By default, when choosing to Generate Components for conditions, all URL conditions default to a Regular Expression (R).

You can leave them as they are or make adjustments to them.  Please consider checking Ignore Case in the edit options for each component.

Useful RegEx Information

Use Cases

Host: .* This symbol means match anything/everything = global async  (Do not load in the Bootstrap)

Host: |  This symbol means you want the condition to match multiple criteria

Example:

(mysite\.demo\.ensighten\.com|mysite\.demo\.ensighten\.com)

Path: For a home page, adding {0,1} to ^(/{0,1})$ means that having the "/" trailing the home page URL is optional

Hash Fragment: Currently the "#" is added by default but it can be removed.
