Regex To Extract Attribute Value

What would be a quick way to extract the value of the title attributes for an HTML table: ...

Proclo

<

Solution 1:

This C# regex will find all title values:

(?<=\btitle=")[^"]*

The C# code is like this:

Regex regex = new Regex(@"(?<=\btitle="")[^""]*");
Match match = regex.Match(input);
string title = match.Value;

The regex uses positive lookbehind to find the position where the title value starts. It then matches everything up to the ending double quote.

Solution 2:

Use the regexp below

title="([^"]+)"

and then use Groups to browse through matched elements.

EDIT: I have modified the regexp to cover the examples provided in comment by @Staffan Nöteberg
