/noop $regex(text,/>([a-z]*)\:/i)
That will store (capture) the text in $regml. Your example shows a space after '>' which will change it to
/noop $regex(text,/>\s([a-z]*)\:/i)
Btw, if you need more help feel free to drop by #Regex on Undernet. There's almost always someone around to help out with simple stuff.
you were right that i had space after the > sign, but the string what comes after that can contain spaces too but it should captur those with it.
like:
<BLA> this is sentence with spaces: oirj ojfojeqofjweoifj
it should capture the whole sentence now like this:
"this is sentence with spaces"
Oh and the sentence can contain ANY characters (except ':')
