How to exclude an HTML tag in regex search -
i'm using powergrep find instances of these:
block 1:
<td class="danish">kat <?php audiobutton("../../audio/words/dog","dog");?></td>
but there instances of these among files:
block 2
<td class="danish">kat</td> <td><?php audiobutton("../../audio/words/dog","dog");?></td>
i want find block 1 only, not block 2.
i've tried using (?!), in
.*<td class(.*?)>(.*)(?!</td>) .*<\?php audiobutton\("(.*)/.*",".*"\);.*\?></td>
can somehow exclude </td>
tag search, block 2 ignored?
i not sure why want match first cell tag only, perform can try:
<td[^>]*>\s*(?:.(?!</td>))+\s*<\?php audiobutton\("[^"]*/(.+?)","(.*?)"\);.*?\?>.*?</td>
g
flag.
