Title Test Details Pattern Title
Expression
<[^>]*>
Description
HTML Pattern Matching PLEASE HELP /&lt;[^&gt;]*&gt;/ig The above pattern is only successful when html tag are simple (they don't include any javascript). This mean that the pattern will fail if something like this is within the tag &lt;input type=button value=test onclick='if(n.value&gt;5)do_this();'&gt;. It will not match the entire open n close sign. How do you write a pattern that will pass all these tag so that the pattern will match from the open to the close sign and not when it just see a &gt; within a '' or &quot;&quot;. &lt;input type=button onclick='if(n.value&gt;5)do_this();'&gt; not this &lt;br&gt; &lt;input type=button onclick=&quot;n&gt;5?a():b();&quot; value=test&gt; not this &lt;br&gt; &lt;input type=button onclick=&quot;n&gt;5?a(\&quot;OK\&quot;):b('Not Ok');&quot; value=test&gt; not this &lt;br&gt; &lt;input type=button onclick='n&gt;5' value=test onmouseover=&quot;n&lt;5&amp;&amp;n&gt;8&quot; onmouseout='if(n&gt;5)alert(\'True\');else alert(&quot;False&quot;)'&gt; not this &lt;br&gt; Any help would be greatly appreciate.
