I your case, you want a function that able to extract a substring that: * starts with "test" * ends with "/" You can do this step by step using simple string method 'find', and slicing: * find the (position of the) first occurrence of "test" * find the (position of the) first occurrence of "/", after "test"'s position * extract the slice defined by these positions Denis ------ la vida e estranya _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
