Regular expression question trying to solve this the past several hours

[yanivkalfa]

First the problem is not so much php relate, as i actually doing it in C# however regular expression are same on all of them and i dont know any c# forums as good and active as phpfreaks so I've decided to post it here.

 

 

My text is:

<div class="15ma">text-special character - numbers </div><div class="15ma">text-special character - numbers </div><div class="15ma">text-special character - numbers </div><div class="15ma">text-special character - numbers </div><div class="15ma">text-special character - numbers </div>

 

No spaces between the dives or new lines.

 

I thought of using this pattern:

<div class="15ma">(.+)<\/div>

 

However kept looking at it and it just grabs the first <div class="15ma"> and the last </div> since i used (.+) it consider all the other as part of the inside text..

 

Any help would be highly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advanced.

You need to use ungreedy quantifiers.

 

<div class="15ma">(.+?)<\/div>
