REGEX problem

[vneecious]

Hello, everyone!

I need a regular expression that matches every text that is not part of the XML tag. I found the regex below, which works perfectly in any online regex validator, but when i test it in DEMO_REGEX_TOY an error occurs.

(?<=^|>)[^><]+?(?=<|$)

Everything indicates that the problem is in ' <= '. There is another way to make it work?

i'll appreciate if someone help me.

Try using

: REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '<[a-zA-Z\/][^>]*>'

I tried this on regex toy and it work for me.

much more simple than search for the content between the tags! thank you 😉

Simplifying your answer:

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '<[^<]+>' WITH space

Another option that's more greedy.

REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '\<(.*?)\>' WITH space
