Hi
I'm trying to write a pattern that catches every occurrence of a word as long as
that word is not inside an html tag.
e.g I want to catch `Hello World` but not <img title="Hello World" />
The closest I got was
(?!<.*?)Hello World(?![^<>]*?>)
which works OK in BBEdit search, but, and here's where I apologise for possibly
taking this question off topic - not in a PHP page
(where it looks like this: $pattern = "'(?!{.*?)$string(?![^{}]*?})'si"; )
where I'm using it to highlight certain words.
Does anyone with a lot more experience with regular expressions know the (more
than likely obvious) way to make this work in PHP too?
Kind Regards
Nicklas
