Could *really* do with some examples

[Sc0th]

I am a little confused, I am trying to make a simple watch that alerts on firmware release change.

As a test I am using a local self hosted page thus:

cake 2.0<br>
cake 5.0<br>
cake 6.0<br>
cake 7.0<br>
cake 8.0<br>
cheese 10.0<br>
cake 9.0<br>
cake 10.0<br>
cake 9.0<br>
cake 10.0<br>

All I want to do is monitor one existing line for changes, so if the version of cheese changes then I am alerted, any other additions/removals I am not interested in.

I am really struggling to make that work, I stick in a regex something like /^ch.*/ in the trigger text box, the preview shows the line as blue trigger, I then add 'cake 11.0' to the end list, and I get an alert, which is not what I am after at all.

If someone could help me be a little less dumb I would be very grateful!

You should use the 'extract text' part to limit to just that line

I just managed to make that work, the problem I made myself seems to be that I was using forward slashes for the regex.

so /.*ch.*/ fails yet just .*ch.* appears to do exactly what I am after - it's a little unclear from the text help, or at least it is to me ;)
