I don't think it's possible to do it with a single RE. However, one can use the RE extractor to extract the specific set of options into a variable, and then use the __regexFunction() to split the variable. But XPath is simpler. It might be useful to enhance the RE extractor to operate on a subset of the body... > Regards, > > Barna > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > [email protected] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [email protected] > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
