Flickr Photo ID Regex - Actionscript

Question

Trying to create a regex for flex that accepts a url in the form of:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/anguslturner/<photoid>/

and extract the following part (the id)

http://www.flickr.com/photos/anguslturner/[0]/

Searched through Google and can't find anything that works successfully...

Answer 1

Not pure RegExp but:

var s:String = "http://www.flickr.com/photos/anguslturner";
var username:String = s.split("/photos/")[1];
trace(username);  // returns anguslturner

if you want to allow anything after the username:

var s:String = "http://www.flickr.com/photos/anguslturner/somethinganythinghere";
var username:String = s.split("/photos/")[1];
trace(username.split("/")[0]); // returns anguslturner
