    <p>I need to catch the following tags + content in html source of the page:</p> <pre><code>&lt;li class="someClass someClass2"&gt; ... some html code ... &lt;/li&gt; </code></pre> <p>I'm not very good at regular expressions, so I'll also appreciate comments containing links to a good tutorial. I've been checking <a href="http://www.regular-expressions.info/" rel="nofollow">http://www.regular-expressions.info/</a> out, but I'm not very happy with explanations there.</p> <p>What I found on the above site was smt like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;li\b[^&gt;]*&gt;(.*?)&lt;/li&gt; </code></pre> <p>This matches all the <code>&lt;li&gt;</code> tags, which is not what I want. I tried messing around with it, and tested this one</p> <pre><code>&lt;li class="someClass someClass[1-9]{1,1}[0-9]*"&gt;(.*?)&lt;/li&gt; </code></pre> <p>Unfortunately, this one doesn't do the job as well. The second class name is in format <em>someClassX</em>, where X is from {1, 2, ... } (well, obviously, it's not a set of natural numbers :) )</p> <p><strong>All I get from this regexp is "no matches". I'm using Ubuntu, Kodos tool.</strong></p> <p>What's even more depressing is the fact that this regexp: </p> <pre><code>&lt;li class="someClass someClass[1-9]{1,1}[0-9]*"&gt; </code></pre> <p>actually catches the opening <code>&lt;li&gt;</code> tags, but nothing more, just as if it gets "distracted" by new line character.</p> <p>I'm still looking for a solution on google, and I'll post it here if found, but I would also really appreciate some helpful input :)</p> <p>Thx</p>

    1. COWhat exactly is wrong about `<li class="someClass someClass[1-9]{1,1}[0-9]*">(.*?)</li>`? (oh, and you can afaik leave out `{1,1}`)

    2. CODoes it need to be a regular expression? Because HTML is not a regular language and your attempt to parse it with regular expressions could possibly fail.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
