is there a function floating about that will take a string such as:

184f44b2-d7b9-d631-1514-d0d00ea7c5ba

and return just the numbers in it?

18444279 etc?

I will keep on looking but haven't come across one so far.

From: someone

// search 'src' and replace all occurences of 'find' with 'replace'
string ReplaceString(string src, string find, string replace) {
return llDumpList2String(llParseStringKeepNulls(src, [find], []), replace);
}


Quick and dirty working example:

From: someone

string ReplaceString (string src, string find, string replace) {
return llDumpList2String(llParseStringKeepNulls(src, [find], []), replace);
}

default
{

state_entry()
{
llSay(0, ReplaceString("184f44b2-d7b9-d631-1514-d0d00ea7c5ba", "-", "";));
}
}

This is cheapass and only works for UUIDs:

llDumpList2String(llParseString2List(uuid, ["a","b","c","d","e","f","-"], []), "";);

OMG. hehe... I'll take the cheap-ass approach, LOL. That's exactly what I want it for, UUIDs, and tho mine seemed to work, it was like 21 lines, grin.
