+==== Extract multiple strings ====
+
+Suppose you want to match the following portion of a web-page:
{{{name="file.name" value="readme.txt"}}} and you want to extract
{{{file.name}}} and {{{readme.txt}}}.
+
+A suitable reqular expression would be:
+
+name="{{{(.+?)}}}" value="{{{(.+?)}}}"
+
+This would create 2 groups, which could be used in the JMeter Regular
Expression Extractor template as $1$ and $2$.
+
+The JMeter Regex Extractor saves the values of the groups in additional
variables.
+
+For example, assume:
+ * Reference Name: is MYREF
+ * Regex: name="{{{(.+?)}}}" value="{{{(.+?)}}}"
+ * Template: $1$$2$
+
+The following variables would be set:
+
+ * MYREF: file.namereadme.txt
+ * MYREF_g0: name="file.name" value="readme.txt"
+ * MYREF_g1: file.name
+ * MYREF_g2: readme.txt
+
+These variables can be referred to later on in the JMeter test plan, as
${MYREF}, ${MYREF_g1} etc
