Regular Expression Extractor Issue
I am trying to extract following values from previous response and pass it to
subsequent requests using Reguluar Expression Extractor. But it always
returns defualt value defined in the Extractor.
<pre>
img id=_menuShow onclick="_showMenu();clearForm(this)"
src="images/showmenu.gif" style="cursor:hand; display:none" alt="(.+?) Menu"
width="(.+?)" border=0
</pre>
It seems to be the problem with the above tag has bracket characters. If I
remove "<img id=_menuShow onclick="_showMenu();clearForm(this)" " then it
works fine. Are there any escape characters to tell Extractor not to
evaluate the above brackets.
Thanks,gnr80

It seems to be that had to escape those characters to get the right values.
I'll try again without those characters to be escaped. I am sure that had to
escape them otherwise got problem in getting extractor to work. The version
was using for testing is 2.3.

:%# do not need to be escaped.
However, . * + must be escaped.
^ and $ must be escaped unless at the start or end.

This is good to know escape character is '\' . I am trying to find what are
the characters to be escaped.
During testing, came across the following fields to be escaped.
()[]:%#

Yes, the escape character is \ so you must use
_showMenu\(\);
rather than
_showMenu();
etc.
