[SOLVED] help with RegExp
Im trying to use regular expressions to identify xhtml tags in a file and then show how many in total and how many of each unique tag there is in the file.
This is just a test to make sure it recognizes < and > as a tag but it doesnt seem to be working :
Code:
import java.util.regex.Matcher; import java.util.regex.Pattern; public class RegularExpExp { public static void main(String[] args) { String inputStr = " <p> "; // a random tag to see if it works Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("< .* >"); // that should mean "<" anything at all ">" Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(inputStr); if (matcher.matches()) { System.out.println("Matched"); } else { System.out.println("Not Matched"); } } }
Well it always shows "Not matched". I'm lost, please reply.

Read the JavaDoc, the way you used here is not safer at all in some cases.
