Re: Parsing HTML tags with regex

Being picky again and, correct me anyone knowing better, but <select name="url>adee" value="wq<ew"> is not legal HTML. It has to be encoded as <select name="url>adee" value="wq<ew">

s$$([},&%#}/&/]+}%&{})*;#$&&s&&$^X.($'^"%]=\&(|?*{%
+.+=%;.#_}\&"^"-+%*).}%:##%}={~=~:.")&e&&s""`$''`"e

Being picky again and, correct me anyone knowing better, but `<select name="url>adee" value="wq<ew">` is not legal HTML. I know better. You are wrong. It is legal HTML. Don't let the fact some browsers can't parse it fool you. `Perl --((8:>*`	[reply] [d/l]

Hi skeeve, the actual thing was `<select name="url" style="width:125px" size="1" onchange="if (this.selectedIndex>0) parent.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;">.` I just used replaced it.	[reply] [d/l]

That's not legal html either. Oh, sure, people put crap like that on their html pages, but it's not legal html - throw it at any html validator. The legal version of that is: `<select name="url" style="width:125px" size="1" onchange="if (this.sel +ectedIndex>0) parent.location.href=this.options[this.selectedIndex +].value;">` [download] -- `@/=map{[/./g]}qw/.h_nJ Xapou cets krht ele_ r_ra/; map{y/X_/\n /;print}map{pop@$_}@/for@/` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
