JavaScript lazy regex for matching HTML tags
I'm having a problem writing a regular expression for matching HTML tags. I found a similar entry here, but this didn't quite work in my case.
Here's my test string:
<div id="div0" class="myclass">here's some text
that may include whitespace</div><div id="div1" class="myclass">
and some more here
</div>
And here's my regex based on the aforementioned entry:
<div[^>]*class="myclass">[^~]*?<\/div>
Note that I nee开发者_StackOverflowd to match the first instance of <div />
with class of "myclass." The content may have carriage returns. These <div>
tags won't be nested.
Here's a rubular page for testing: http://rubular.com/r/vlfcikKMXk
That regex tested is not great. It is in fact matching as you want it to, but it is matching it multiple times (2 different matches), and not showing a difference, you only want the first match.
Go here: http://gskinner.com/RegExr/
Test it there, turn off the 'global' you will see it working.
