I don't think you can do that with regular expressions. To do so would require the matcher attempt to match multiple different ways against the same text, and that's just not how they work.
Alternatively, you can sometimes use the HTML Link Parser for this sort of thing. I say 'sometimes' because it's a touchy piece of code that likes things just so, but if your HTTP Request is otherwise straightforward, you might be able to do so. The basics of using it involve attaching an HTML Link Parser to the request you want to modify (ie, not the previous request as you would do with the regular expression post processor). Then, in your request you have a parameter named "cbo_Type". For the value of that parameter, put '*'. It might be as easy as that. Or not :-) -Mike On Tue, 2004-08-24 at 15:55, Peter Bernier wrote: > Hello, > > I've been trying to figure out the correct regular expression to be > using to extract a random value from a combobox (html <select>) and > can't quite seem to get the syntax right. > > I'm trying to use this expression in the Regular Expression field of a > Regular Expression Extract Post Processor : > > name="cbo_Type" size="1">[\W]*<option value="-1" > SELECTED></option>[\w\W]*<option value="(\d*)" > >[\w\W]*</option>[\W]*</select> > > Where cbo_Type is the combobox that I want the values to come from and > all values are positive integer numbers. > > Sample code to apply the expression on : > <select id="cbo_Type" name="cbo_Type" size="1"> > <option value="-1" SELECTED></option> > <option value="5" >Value 5</option> > <option value="1" >Value 1</option> > <option value="3" >Value 3</option> > <option value="2" >Value 2</option> > <option value="4" >Value 4</option> > </select> > > Depending on the expression that I use, I only seem to be able to extract > the first or last integer value (with separate expressions...). > > I would greatly appreciate any help with this.. > > - Peter > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Michael Stover <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Apache Software Foundation --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
