I think that will capture too much as "." also matches any ">" it finds. Also, there is an extraneous ">" in the RE. Should probably be Regular Expression :<input type=hidden name=userSession value=(.*?)> The ? makes it stop at the first match (non-greedy). It would be a bit quicker to put: Regular Expression :<input type=hidden name=userSession value=([^>]+) which will match all characters that are not ">" - this is an easier search to perform. If the value can be on a separate line, then you will need to use: Regular Expression :<input type=hidden name=userSession\s+value=([^>]+) Attributes are normally enclosed in quotes, in which case the RE need adjusting: Regular Expression :<input type="hidden" name="userSession"\s+value="[^"]+ > Template:$1$ > Match #:0 > Add a Default value so you can tell whether or not the RE was applied successfully.
