Read a part of a link

Hi,

html code:

<a href="dorf1.php?a=2&c=4dc">

A MessageBox should show me the "4dc".

Well, the first question's going to be, what's your attempt so far look like? (Code please)

The second question's going to be, is that string always formatted that way? As in the only variation is after "<a href="dorf1.php?a=2&c="?

1. I think i need something with stringsplit...

EDIT: but how to read the string?

2. dorf1.php?a=$var1&c=$var2

<a href="dorf1.php?a=2&c=4dc">

While StringSplit would be a way to go, it'd be more tedious than using a Regular Expression like this:

#include <Array.au3> ; Only necessary to display the results quickly

$String = '<a href="dorf1.php?a=2&c=4dc">' ; This would be whatever source HTML you're working off of

If StringRegExp ($String, '(?:<a href="dorf1.php\?a=)([[:alnum:]]{1,4})(?:&c=)(4dc)(?:">)', 0) Then
    $RegExp = StringRegExp ($String, '(?:<a href="dorf1.php\?a=)([[:alnum:]]{1,4})(?:&c=)(4dc)(?:">)', 1)
    _ArrayDisplay ($RegExp) ; Only necessary to display the results quickly
EndIf

Now go read the HelpFile about StringRegExp and see what all I did there.

Ok thank you...

But i dont know how to read the string out of the html code.

How are you getting the HTML code? Using INetGet? or _IEDocReadHTML?

*Edit - At this point do you even have code to get the HTML code?
