I am trying to match <input>
type “hidden” fields using this pattern:
/<input type="hidden" name="([^"]*?)" value="([^"]*?)" />/
This is sample form data:
<input type="hidden" name="SaveRequired" value="False" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE1" value="1H4sIAAtzrkX7QfL5VEGj6nGi+nP" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE2" value="0351118MK" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE3" value="ZVVV91yjY" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE0" value="3" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="" /><input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" value="" />
But I am not sure that the type
, name
, and value
attributes will always appear in the same order. If the type
attribute comes last, the match will fail because in my pattern it’s at the start.
Question:
How can I change my pattern so it will match regardless of the positions of the attributes in the <input>
tag?
P.S.: By the way I am using the Adobe Air based RegEx Desktop Tool for testing regular expressions.
