Jmeter is not extracting correctly the value with the reg ex. When I play with this reg ex (NAME="token" \s value="([^"]+?)") in reg ex coach with the following html everything work fine but when adding the reg with a reg ex extrator to the request he doesn't found the value even if it's the same html in output.

<HTML>< script type="text/javascript" >
function dostuff(no, applicationID)
{
    submitAction('APPS_NAME' , 'noSelected=' + no + '&applicationID=' + applicationID);
}< /script>

<FORM NAME="baseForm" ACTION="" METHOD="POST">
  <input type="hidden" NAME="token" value="fc95985af8aa5143a7b1d4fda6759a74" >

    <div id="loader" align="center">
     <div>
         <strong style="color: #003366;">Loading...</strong>
     </div>
     <img src="images/initial-loader.gif" align="top"/>
 </div>

   <BODY ONLOAD="dostuff('69489','test');">

From the reg ex extractor

reference name: token

Regex: (NAME="token" \s value="([^"]+?)")

template : $2$

match no.:1

Default value: wrong-token

The request following my the POST of the previous code is returning : POST data: token=wrong-token

in the next request in the tree viewer.

But when I check a the real request in a proxy the token is there.

Note : I tried the reg ex without the bracket and doesn't worked either.

Do anybody have a idea whats wrong here ? Why jmeter can't find my token with the reg ex extrator ?
