Regex html tags

Question

I'm trying to figure out the regex for the following:

String</td><td>[number 0-100]%</td><td>[number 0-100]%</td><td>String</td><td>String</td>

Also, some of these td tags may have style attributes at some point. I tried this:

String<.*>

and that returned

String</td>

but trying

String<.*><.*>

returned nothing. Why is this?

Answer 1

(.+)</td><td>(1?\d?\d)%</td><td>(1?\d?\d)%</td><td>(.+)</td><td>(.+)</td>

Answer 2

use Character class, like <td[^>]*> if <td> or <td class="abc">

Answer 3

You probably shouldn't be trying to use a regex to parse HTML, because that way lies madness.

Answer 4

Try the following:

(.+)(<[^>]+>){2}(1?\d?\d)%(<[^>]+>){2}(1?\d?\d)%(<[^>]+>){2}(.+)(<[^>]+>){2}(.+)<[^>]+>

You can test it here.

EDIT: Although this will work for most of the time, if there is > character in one attribute of the tag, this regex won't work.
