Re: Need Help with regular expression

Could you be a little more specific? The example you have cited is not
clear enough. Regular expressions are used to match complex patterns
from a string
e.g. if you wanted to find all instances of "Windows 95" and "Windows
98" but not "Windows 2000"

If you want to find all instances of a specifc string, you are better
off using the string.IndexOf method.

Re: Need Help with regular expression

okey dude,
ultimately i made one regEx by myself. here it is for all those who
are in need for the same

<a [a-zA-Z0-9 ="'.:;?]*href=*[a-zA-Z0-9 ="'.:;>?]*[^>]*>([a-zA-Z0-9
="'.:;>?]*[^<]*<)\s*/a\s*>


copy all the links from my last post into one string and run this
expression. it will show you the o/p that i wanted.
