Hi All,
I am in need of a regular expression which will extract the required attributes only from a HTML tag.
The tag which i am targetting is <embed>.
Purpose.
I am building a website which will show the user Video clips from Google/youtube/Msn videos / Yahoo videos and other video sharing sites. When we upload a clip in these sites, we get an option to embed the clip in our webpage. This will be doen using Embed tag.
Below was taken from google
<embed style='width:400px; height:326px;' id='VideoPlayback' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-7832434999576109331&hl=en" flashvars=""> </embed>
The above data will be filled by the user in the form specified. From the data which was given by user i want to extract the attribute value SRC and flashvars. How can i do this with the help of regular expression.
One more problem that can arise when we write the Regex. Since I am allowing the user to upload the video stream on google videos, youtube, msn videos, there is a high chance of different tag attributes.. How can we trap that.
Friends, i don't know much in regex. I do basic string, numeric validations using regex. This one is sucking a lot of my time. Please help me in this regard
The regular expression will be used in VB.NET and for a website.
