I like to extract the coordinates from this text:

Text

https://www.seite.com/map?ll=30.123456,21.123456
Text
83k | 1,8 Mio auf Punkt

I have tried but it did not work well: https://jsfiddle.net/pnyqrgfz/ The result should be like this:

30.123456,21.123456
11.146724,27.427684
24.142451,36.127474
26.241442,16.323624
47.139682,14.124675
Solution

  • What about this short solution:

    var source = 'https://www.seite.com/map?ll=30.123456,21.123456';
var pattern = /[0-9]+\.[0-9]+/g;
source.match(pattern);

    Output:

    ["30.123456", "21.123456"]
