Question

I’m searching to match all the content between 2 tag <a and </a>

My page is always the same,

<a class="applink" href="myLINK" target="..." onClick="..."><img src="..." border="0" alt="..." title="..." align=bottom hspace=3 width="32" height="32"><br>xxxxx</br></a>

A would like match all part of html code where code like this.

so <a class="applink" [...] </a> (!!!! with the tag <img for example –> no [^>]*)

Answer 1

HTML parsing is a bit tricky with regex, but this should work for many cases:

<a\s.*?href\s*=\s*"appLink"[^>]*>(.|\s)*?</a>

This will match elements with an href=”appLink”.

You might want to consider using the .NET XML parsing code.
