I have tried using my own and using the top ones here on StackOverflow, but most of them let matched more than was desired.

For instance, some would extract http://foo.com/hello?world<br (note <br at end) from the input ...http://foo.com/hello?world<br>....

    Essentially, you were allowing characters from + through =, which includes <
