Hi Sebb
Thanks for the response. Sorry for the mistaken info. There are no quotes
for either of the values. So the response would be
.....<a href="something.com?param1=val1¶m2=123456">...</a>.....
In which case the regex param2=([\d{6}]) should work right ?

The [ and ] are used to enclose character classes, i.e. [abc] means a
or b or c - but only one such character.
What you need is
param2="(\d{6})"
You need the final " otherwise it would match: param2="1234567

0 means pick a random match - did you mean that?
