Regular Expressions anyone?

[Joe_Fox]

Anyone any good at using regular expressions to find certain stuff in some code?

I want to find all occurences of where a </div> tag is followed by another </div> tag.

The second </div> tag can be right next to the first, on the next line or even separated from the first tag by white space.

If there is anything inbetween the two </div> tags then this should not be counted.

For example:

These files should be matched:

1.

</div></div>

2.

</div> </div>

3.

</div>
        </div>

These files should NOT be matched:

1.

</div>some text</div>

2.

</div>some text </div>

3.

</div>some text
         </div>

If anyone can provide me with a regular expression that I can use to search through my files of code to find all as explained above I'll be eternally grateful.

Cheers,
Joe

still not matching example 3 of the SHOULD match examples, thanks though.

edit: there is a white space before the \n

JF might want to check for tabs and line feeds as well. :icon_wink
