Also, check Wikipedia for other regexes…

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_postcodes

There is also a regex on the Royal Mail Group web site, somewhere, although having just searched I couldn’t find it. But it is there… somewhere.

A better reg ex for UK Postcodes is as follows:

(GIR 0AA)|((([A-Z-[QVX]][0-9][0-9]?)|(([A-Z-[QVX]][A-Z-[IJZ]][0-9][0-9]?)|(([A-Z-[QVX]][0-9][A-HJKSTUW])|([A-Z-[QVX]][A-Z-[IJZ]][0-9][ABEHMNPRVWXY])))) [0-9][A-Z-[CIKMOV]]{2})

Martin, I don’t know then. It’s always just worked for me. Couple of things… in 8.0.1 live text doesn’t display in a preview until you actually click inside the e-mail. Second, you don’t get live text in HTML e-mails (unless you turn off display via the embedded browser) but should do in Notes-to-Notes e-mails.

Martin, are other pieces of content (such as names) being recognised and underlined?

Have followed the steps above to create the post code widget.
But I am not getting the green line under post codes that i look at in lotus notes.
I have live text turned on in preferences, am also running Lotus Notes 8.5 client and server
Any ideas please

Has anyone sussed out how to modify an existing widget with the GUI and not having to hack the XML and reinstall the widget?

Hi Darren,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, that was the first thing I did before I started configuring widgets. I tried using a different recognizer (not the one that associates the component to the ‘q’ field) and it does recognize the post code now. But I’m wondering if there’s any chance it would recognize the whole address.

Mark, thanks for the update, I became aware that my code missed out a few formats. RAC Routefinder is a good one. Someone suggested the nearest Starbucks, but I couldn’t get that to work (that’s a challenge thrown down).

Hi Madel… have you been into the preferences and ensured that live text is turned on?
