Howdy all,

I've got this incoming string "132 / 456 / 789" (Or sometimes even "123/456/789" but it should always be with / seperating the numeric values.) and I'm trying to capture just the numbers and move them into a variable.  My RegEx is: 

([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)

So, capture a set of numbers, don't capture a set of non-numbers, repeat 3 times.  This works great if there are exactly 3 sets of numbers.

Here's my test BLOCKED SCRIPT

var testVar = "123 / 456 / 789";

var reg_exp1 = /([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)([0-9]+)(?:[^0-9]*)/;

var testVarReg1 = testVar.replace(reg_exp1, "$1");

var testVarReg2 = testVar.replace(reg_exp1, "$2");

var testVarReg3 = testVar.replace(reg_exp1, "$3");

document.write("Capture1: " + testVarReg1);

document.write(" Capture2: " + testVarReg2);

document.write(" Capture3: " + testVarReg3);

This produces: "Capture1: 123 Capture2: 456 Capture3: 789" which is exactly what I want.

The problem is sometimes there will only be 2 numbers.  Such as "123 / 456"  This causes weird things to happen.

Only 2 numbers produces: Capture1: 123 Capture2: 45 Capture3: 6

Any suggestions on how to fix this?  Is there an easier way to accomplish this?

Thanks,
