NimbostratusRegsub always returns a 1 never 0
I've tried running the script that is posted which uses regsub to search for Social Security Numbers in the form xxx-xx-xxxx. I've tried several different permuations of this but can never get anything but a value of "1" for $new_response1.
Click here to see the link to the iRule:

The line in the last section:
if {$new_response1 !=0} {
then replace content...
}
Always returns a value of 1, even if there is no SSN found. I'm guessing that someone used != 0 to get it to work since it is never set to 0. i.e. if no SS is found.

markbe_58035I found a bug -- sorta -- in this iRule!
This tends to match against FedEx tracking numbers, so if you're generating those and sending them out, you'll find a few digits, then a string of X characters, then a few more digits. Perhaps you need to add a whitespace border to the rule?
