QRegExp to capture HTML link

[ChrisW67]

QRegExp::setMinimal() may help but regular expressions to match nested delimiter pairs (i.e <>, "", etc.) is difficult to get right. The situation is not helped by inconsistent HTML... for example upper/lower case, single/double/no quote, valueless attributes etc.

Yes, I tried setting this minimal flag.

const QString cstrProduktLinkRegExp("<a .*class=\"produkt\">");
QRegExp stProductRow(cstrProduktLinkRegExp,Qt::CaseSensitive,QRegExp::RegExp2);
stProductRow.setMinimal(true);
iStart = strSearchTable.indexOf(stProductRow,iStart);
if (stProductRow.matchedLength()==0)
	return -1;
QString strProductRow = stProductRow.cap();

const QString cstrProduktLinkRegExp("<a .*class=\"produkt\">");
QRegExp stProductRow(cstrProduktLinkRegExp,Qt::CaseSensitive,QRegExp::RegExp2);
stProductRow.setMinimal(true);
iStart = strSearchTable.indexOf(stProductRow,iStart);
if (stProductRow.matchedLength()==0)
	return -1;
QString strProductRow = stProductRow.cap();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Still - he finds first matching <A> and finish regexp AFTER first appearance of class="produkt".
