| Can Anyone explain to me what I'm doing wrong on this expression
I want it to send a page to me if someone else other then Jordan sends me a tell..
If I take out (?!Jordan ) the expression works fine.
And Yes i know its matching my prompt. I cant get it to work with out having it match my Prompt. ^ wouldnt work at all. But it's fine that it matches my prompt because I only want this trigger to run when im crafting and I will have full health when Im crafting.
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="698H 717M 947S > (?!Jordan ) (\w*) (gossips|say|states|tells you)\, '(.*?)$"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
<send>Page Joe
</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>
Heres a line from the game
698H 717M 947S > Jordan tells you, 'I'll give you 50000 coins for that'

| Check out this page for a description of how to do exactly that:
http://www.gammon.com.au/regexp
Scroll down to where it says "Negative lookbehind assertions".
The example given there is similar to what you are doing. With a bit of re-arranging it works fine:
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="698H 717M 947S > (\w+)(?<!Jordan) (gossips|say|states|tells you)\, '(.*?)$"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
<send>Page Joe
</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>
However you should be able to get rid of the prompt numbers. Won't that be a hassle when your max health changes?
Just replace each of the numbers with \d+ - that means one or more digits. Then it will match on any numbers.
<triggers>
<trigger
enabled="y"
match="\d+H \d+M \d+S > (\w+)(?<!Jordan) (gossips|say|states|tells you)\, '(.*?)$"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
<send>Page Joe
</send>
</trigger>
</triggers>
