Extracting a certain area of a string

Post by phreako »

Say i have a string that i named it $value that looks like this

<!-- P: Owner1 -->,<!-- P2: Owner2 -->,<!-- P3: Owner3 --> <!-- P4: Owner4 -->

I wanna extract the P2 value.

So i just want the thing "Owner2". How do I go about doing it?

this should store it in a var called $p2

Code: Select all

regexp {P2:\s(.*?)\s-->} $value . p2
