Hi !!
What regular expression should I write to get data from an html tag?
Example: <title> The data I want to retrieve </title>
I want to get "The data I want to retrieve"
Could be right this one? @<\s* (title)\s* > [(\s* \w+)]+ (</title>)+
Thanks

Try this:
Regex regex = new Regex(@"((?:<\w +>\s*)(?<data>. +)(?:\s*</\w+>))",
RegexOptions.Ex plicitCapture);
which will capture your data (and only your data) to a group named
"data", ignoring beginning and trailing whitespace.

Ooops, should have used non-greedy:
Regex regex = new Regex(@"((?:<\w +>\s*)(?<data>. +?)(?:\s*</\w+>))",
RegexOptions.Ex plicitCapture);
