If the parens are the factor then you could try something like:
if ( /.+\(([^)]+)\).+\(([^)]+)\)/ ) {
$My1stVar = $1; # include everything up to the next right ) in $1 after
finding a left (
$My2ndVar = $2; # include everything up to the next right ) in $2 after
finding a left (
}else {
# no hit on var(s), what do you want to do
}
Wags ;)
