Thanks, Sebb, the following works like charm:
RegExp: (?s)(<select name="orderData.secAccountId".*?<option
value="([0-9]*)" selected="selected">)
Template: $2$
However I am a bit confused about numbering the template.
My understanding is:
$1$ is what matched starting at <select and ending at selected">
.*? is not counted as it is not in paranthesis.
$2$ is what matched with ([0-9]*)
Is this correct?
Thanks
