Question

I need some simple help with regex I want to grab the values in between brackets and equal signs.

<a href="[url=img.php?i=1][pod=2]">My Link</a>

then grab the values of url = img.php?i=1 and pod = 2

so somehow regex should check in between [ and = then get the value in between = and ]

Answer 1

try out this sample for yourself – http://jsfiddle.net/ENwf8/

var string = "[url=img.php?i=1][pod=2]";
var regEx = /\[(.*?)=(.*?)]\[(.*?)=(.*?)]/;
var matches = string .match(regEx);

for (index = 0; index < matches.length; index++) {
    document.write(index + ": " + matches[index] + "<br>");
}

prints:

0: [url=img.php?i=1][pod=2]
1: url
2: img.php?i=1
3: pod
4: 2
