Problem

Hi Gero.

Could you give me the samples on using parser "replace" (or using other way) with following cases. for exapmle {{#replace: [[User:Michael|Roc Michael]] | from | to }}

Item	From (Before)	To (After)
Case 1	[[User:Michael|Roc Michael]] and [[User:張三|張小三]] or [[用戶:Michael|Roc Michael]] and [[用戶:張三|張小三]]	Roc Michael and 張小三
Case 2	[[User:Michael|Roc Michael]] and [[User:張三|張小三]] or [[用戶:Michael|Roc Michael]] and [[用戶:張三|張小三]]	Michael and 張三

Please give me a hand.--Roc michael 02:33, 20 December 2007 (CET)

 {{#replace:{{{1}}}|/^([^{{!}}]+\{{!}}){1}([^\]]+).*/|\2}}

 {{#replace:{{{1}}}|/^([^:]+:){1}([^{{!}}]+).*/|\2}}

Put the above code into a template and you will see that the user ID and the user name will be extracted.

Thank you for your help

Hi Gero. The results are just what I want. Thank you!
