if the id is made only of digits, I usually use (\d+) to extract all of them; example:
\"item_id\": \"(\d+)\" the (\d+) example should work especially when the digits are surrounded by other pieces of text that you don't want to extract (if the expression is too general it will extract a lot of other numbers). someone correct me if the syntax is too sloppy , but it works in all cases i've encountered... if the id is made of other characters too, you could use: (.+) On Tue, Dec 15, 2009 at 2:02 PM, Babak Shafian <[email protected]> wrote: > > Thanks for the response, > > just one problem: your supposed regex returns the last cipher but I wanted > to get the whole number!
