Any reason why you dont like the XPATH extractor? (My experience is that
XPATH expressions are much easier to write and understand and fit most of
the cases)
In any case plan b would be
a. Write a regex post processor to extract the contents of the <select> you
want . Something like
(?s)<select\s*name="VB_idCprel"\s*>(.*?)</select> , template=$1$,
referenceName=var1,MatchNo=1
verify that you are getting everything in between in the var1 variable using
a debug sampler
b. Use the regexFunction to run a second regex on var1 to get the option
value. Something like
${__regexFunction(<option.*?value="([^"]*)",$1$,RAND,,NOTFOUND,var2,var1)}
The documentation for this function is available
http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/functions.html#__regexFunctionbut
its basically a function version of the above post processor.
You can also do the above two steps in one if you know a bit of Java - Just
use the Java Regex classes and a BeanShell post processor.
As before the XPATH is simpler and elegant.
