Subject: Re: Regexp, matching only the content within parentheses

Thank you, that pointed me in the right direction. But now I'm facing 
another problem (still kinda the same). I have this string:

f_(a)(x)=x^(2)+(5x//f'(x))

Where i need to capture everything within the parentheses surrounding 
the double-slashes (//), like so:

(5x//f'(x))

My problem is that I can't seem to get past the last parentheses around 
the f'(x). This is what I've gotten so far:

(([^(]*)\/\/[^\)]*)

And that will match `5x//f'(x`, so I need to get past that last closing 
parentheses around the x.

I hope that someone (Gunther, if you'r still up for it?) can help me.

Best regards
// Emil
