parse a normal textfile

[devi thapa]

hi all

           I have one normal text file. I need to parse the file, that too
in an associative way .
suppose that below is the normal textfile

name='adf'
id  =1
value=344

So when I give 'name' as an input, the output must be 'adf'

so please help me out with this.

regards,
devi.
