Hi Kids, I'm a little new to Movable Type and I've tried to searching the forums with no luck.
All I want to do is select entries with a field that start with a given letter, for example B or b.
How do I do this?
Thanks,
Erich

Hi Erich.
I don't think that you can do it directly, but maybe something like that will work:
<mt:entries>
<mt:if tag="EntryTitle" like="^(B|b)">
</mt:if>
</mt:entries>
the "^(B|b)" is a regular expression that says "starts with B or b".

Hi Shmuel,
I've enjoyed your reply to Erich here!
It would be really excellent if you could put together a page on the movable type documentation which to detail a few samples of regular expressions usage in combination with movable type tags, such as the mt:If tag.
We definitely lack this piece of information at this time.
Kind Regards,
Mihai Bocsaru
