[RESOLVED] General Regex Question [JS]

[Zach_VB6]

The text has the lines (in this format):

Did you know Mary is 15 years old?
Did you know Joe is 57 years old?
Did you know John is 6 years old?
Did you know Melissa is 99 years old?

Here's my pattern:

Did you know ([A-Za-z]+) is (\d+) years old

Implemented into JavaScript:

var matched = text.match(/Did you know ([A-Za-z]+) is (\d+) years old/);

The problem is, matched[1] = "Did you know Mary is 15 years old"

It always equals that... How do I get them into an array, where I can loop through? For example, index 0 would have Mary's details, index 1 would have Joe's details, index 2 is John's, and so on...

Thanks guys

Got it!

var text = "Did you know Mary is 15 years old?Did you know Joe is 57 years old?Did you know John is 6 years old?Did you know Melissa is 99 years old?";
var rgx = /Did you know ([A-Za-z]+) is (\d+) years old/g;
while((matched = rgx.exec(text)) != null)
{
  alert(matched[1] + " - " + matched[2]); 
}
