By the way, just to clarify, the flex i mentioned isn’t the adobe’s sdk. It’s a lexical analyzer employed just for tokenizing. It’s quite lame, i haven’t expected a clashing here.

Good day Steve:
I was trying to retrieve some quoted strings from lex. It has became clear after I tried and studied your examples that lex or flex doesn’t support looking somewhere or anywhere nor lazy star / lazy plus operators.
So this is what I did after a day off from school was wholly burnt:
(“)((\\\\)|(\\”)|([^*"]))*(“)
The result from lex looks just fine for me so far but could you still tell me whether it’s the right thing or not in such circumstances?

Hi, You have a great website. I am trying to figure out a regex for finding a text that has this pattern:
/”>any text

I tried:
([/">])[0-9a-zA-Z]/

but it doesn’t seem to be working, any idea?
Thanks

PS. I am coding in Java
