regular expression to remove letters in classic asp 1

[panini]

Hi there,

A numeric (cash) variable I am working with is having extra characters added to it in different browsers and os's on it's path through scrapes and javascript links.

Just before i use the variable again in asp i want to clean it up and get rid of everything apart from numbers and a decimal point. Can anyone help me with a regular expression to do this - or any other way - i'm open to ideas!

Many thanks

[tt]
'given string s
set rx=new regexp
with rx
.pattern="[^\d\.]"
.global=true
end with
t=rx.replace(s,"") 'desired stripped answer
[/tt]

You may also want to add

set rx=nothing to the end of that code
