This is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being
attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country."

Use this regex and save $1 and $3 /(<a.*?"http://([^/]+/)+[^?]+?)
([^=]+=\S+\s+\S&?)/gx
Then use this on $2 to replace the spaces s/\s/+/gx.
Then push $1 and $2 back together to get your whole string.
That's the perl way...

I was actually just looking for a regex solution to parsing up many
lines of text, some of which contain urls. And if those url's have a
space on the query string to replace those spaces on the query string
with the + character.
I could use CF but, was trying to just get the regex. Possbly using a
lookahead or lookbehind assertion.

do you plan to save the complete url in a variable or just search
keyword in
a variable? For example varUrl = <a href="http://blah.com?
search=Some

or varUrl = "Some Lingering Suspicion"
Please clarify.
