czmaster Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) Hello, I use RegExp to extract data from HTML code. Example of HTML code: ...<a>text<b>123</b></a>...</a> I want to extract everything between <a> and the first </a> with StringRegExp, in my examle "text<b>123</b>" . I know this Pattern "<a>([^<]*)" to say extract any character between "<a>" and the first "<" but I don't know how to extract everything between "<a>" and the first "</a>" (every string but not </a>). Does this pattern exist or do you have other solution ? Thank you. PS : I don't want to use StingInStr and StringMid for many raisons Edited October 22, 2011 by czmaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted October 22, 2011 Moderators Share Posted October 22, 2011 czmaster,Try this: $sText = "...<a>text<b>123</b></a>...</a>" $aRet = StringRegExp($sText, "(?U)<a>(.*)<\/a>", 3) MsgBox(0, "Return", $aRet[0])The (?U) makes the SRE look for the smallest match rather then the largest.
