Store value from a correlation - jmeter

I have a开发者_运维知识库 dropdown list correlation.I have correlated the entire string and used split() function of jmeter. My correlation value is:

temp=<option value="5">CANCELLED</option><option value="1">NEW</option><option value="2">ACTIVE</option><option value="4">TERMINATED</option><option value="6">IN-ACTIVE</option><option value="7

Using split() function i have splited the above as following,

temp_1=<option value=
temp_10=6
temp_11=>IN-ACTIVE</option><option value=
temp_12=7
temp_2=5
temp_3=>CANCELLED</option><option value=
temp_4=1
temp_5=>NEW</option><option value=
temp_6=2
temp_7=>ACTIVE</option><option value=
temp_8=4
temp_9=>TERMINATED</option><option value=
temp_n=12

Now i need to substitute 7 (temp_12 value) in subsequent requests. Each time the list length may vary and so is the temp_n(12) count value.Can anyone please let me know how to save this value?

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking, but you will always have the count available as ${temp_n} and the value of temp_12 as ${temp_12}
