[tpm] YARE (yet another regex) question

As an expansion to my earlier question on assigning values to new
variables directly from a regular expression; I want to now use a
similar technique to populate a 'foreach' loop.
Specifically; This works:
# WWW::Mechanize object.
my $processing_page=$agent->content;
foreach my $cookie ($processing_page=~/document.cookie="(.*?)"/gs)
{
my ($variable, $value, $path)=$cookie=~/(.*?)=(.*?); path=(.*?);/;
print "Setting cookie: [$variable=$value, $path under
$$conf{nexxia}{cookie_domain}]\n";
$agent->cookie_jar->set_cookie(0, $variable, $value, $path,
$$conf{nexxia}{cookie_domain});
}
However, this doesn't:
my $results_page=$agent->content;
my %results=();
foreach (my $variable, my $value) ($results_page=~/<input name="(.*?)"
type="hidden" value="(.*?)">/gs)
{
print "Storing: [$variable]\t->\t[$value]\n";
$results{$variable}=$value;
}
I'd like to grab two variables into a foreach loop. Perhaps this
doesn't work at all, regardless of the source?
Thanks, as always!
