Subject: find next occurence, regular expressions

Hi, ok I'm none to good at regular expressions but i've got to do
something and need a little help.

Basically i'm trying to hunt down a particular word within a url string,

so to test, i define a local variable, var_string,

var_string="user=22&val=999"

then run a regular expression match on the variable,

user = var_string.match(/=(\w+)&/)

which returns => '22' as it's looking for the first word occurence which
has = and a & at the start & finish.

so the question is how could i return the second occurence (999) ?
