replace text in anchor text Options

[Tiff 1998]

I have a list of movies that when the link has focus sends the link text to an input feild that I use for a search function.
I would like to do the same for tv shows.

My files are currently formatted as

CODE

<a href="showname s01e01.mp4">Showname s01e01</a>

The text I need to send to the input field is
Showname&Season=01&Episode=01

Is this possible without changing the link text that is displayed on the screen?

This is the script that I use to send the text to the input field.

CODE

$(function () {
    $('#rightbox a').on('focus', function () {
        var text = $('#moviename');
        text.val($(this).text());
var fileName =$(this).text();
        fileName = fileName.replace(/\.[^/.]+$/, "");
        text.val(fileName);    
        $Form.click();
    });
});

I'm guessing I need some regex in here, but I'm not good enough at regex yet.

Sorry Christian I got carried away and forgot to come back. I got it sorted out with this:

CODE

$("#rightbox a").focus(function() {
  var title = $(this).text(),
    isShow = (/s(\d+)e(\d+)/i).test(title),
    rgx, rplcment;

   rgx = (isShow) ? / s(\d+)e(\d+).*/i : /(\w+(\.\w+)*)\.\w+/;
  rplcmnt = (isShow) ? '&Season=$1&Episode=$2' : '$1';

  title = title.replace(rgx, rplcmnt);
  $('#moviename').val(title);
$Form.click();
});

Thank you for your time though
