    anyone good at regex ? help needed.

    i have word press site,
    it has links in each post in following pattern.


    http://jump2link.net/watch/getdownloadmanager.php?movie=Sculpture%20(2009)%20 &authid=1321

    http://jump2link.net/watch/getdownloadmanager.php?movie=Dreams%20and%20Shadow s%20(2009)%20&authid=1321

    so i want to replace all these links using "search regex" plugin.

    i neeed help in generating regex pattern so that all links will get searched by this plugin and i can replace them.

    thanks for your time.

      as u can see the

      http://jump2link.net/watch/getdownloadmanager.php?movie=

      this part is constant in each url and later on the movie name which is random in each post.

          if I have to take a (very) wild guess here, you should be able to do that in MySQL without having to mess with regex at all

          there should be a query that finds "http://jump2link.net/watch/getdownloadmanager.php?movie=" in your links and then you can replace them with other entries?????

          or a few lines of PHP???

                  i got it,

                  search for
                  /getdownloadmanager.php\?([^\"]*)\">/iU

                  i.e.

                  # starts with: getdownloadmanager.php?
                  # a series of characters up to, but not including, the next double-quote (") - 1st capture
                  # the string: ">
