I need to match all of these opening tags:
<p>
<a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1732348/foo">
But not these:
<br />
<hr class="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1732348/foo" />
I came up with this and wanted to make sure I’ve got it right. I am only capturing the a-z.
<([a-z]+) *[^/]*?>
I believe it says:
- Find a less-than, then
- Find (and capture) a-z one or more times, then
- Find zero or more spaces, then
- Find any character zero or more times, greedy, except
/, then - Find a greater-than
Do I have that right? And more importantly, what do you think?
