Need help with _StringBetween

[jxn]

Hi there,

I am having some trouble with _StringBetween when learning the basics. Here is the code:

#include <String.au3>

$test = "<p>This is a test</p>"
$abc = _StringBetween($test, "<p>", "</p>")

$file = FileOpen("test.txt", 1)
FileWrite($file, $abc)
FileClose($file)

I want to get the text "This is a test", and write it into test.txt file, however, the code fails to work and nothing has been written into the file. Something is wrong with _StringBetween, but I can't figure it out. Can anyone help to identify what the problem is?

Thanks

FileWrite($file, $abc[0])

Return Value

Success: A 0 based $array[0] contains the first found string.

Great tips! Thanks bogQ. I change $abc into $abc[0], and it runs perfectly now.

Oh, one more thing, I found _StringBetween is really powerful in scraping webpages, really helps me a lot!
