That's funny. I could of sworn I tried doing that before even my first post, but alas, 
I must of screwed up somewhere else. I know I read a archived email that said 
specifically that you were supposed to put the regex call as a response to the 2nd 
request - and not the first. Oh well, maybe that's how it used to work in an older 
version or I'm going completly out of my mind.

Thanks for you help!

Ok.  I see the problem.  Move the Regexp extractor to the first sampler. 
  The extractor gets run on the -output- of the sampler it's attached 
to.  So, the variable isn't filled with anything in your case, until 
your test is done.

And in your case, you still don't need the _g1.  But after rereading the 
docs, it won't hurt, either.
