How would I go about finding multiple occurrences in one line using regex in Java?
My code (regex included):
public static List<String> getTitles(String html) {
List<String> titles = new ArrayList<String>();
String pattern = "(.*)rel=\"bookmark\">(.*)</a></h2>";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(pattern);
Matcher m = p.matcher(html);
while (m.find())
System.out.println(m.group(2));
return titles;
}
Part of the string I'm using it on:
... title="Permalink to Jet Racing Extreme – Alpha Download" rel="bookmark">Jet Racing Extreme – Alpha Download</a></h2><div class="entry-meta"> Posted on <a ...
This works for the first occurrence (the whole string actually), but since the whole string is considered the first occurence it's not looking further.
I hope you understand what I'm trying to say, I don't know how to explain it much clearer..
--EDIT I've also tried replacing the regex by this:
rel="bookmark">(.*)</a></h2>
I thought doing this would only consider part of the one line string as an occurrence and thus fixing my problem. However, insteading of taking only:
rel="bookmark">Jet Racing Extreme – Alpha Download</a></h2>
As the occurence, it takes everything behind it also?
rel="bookmark">Jet Racing Extreme – Alpha Download</a></h2><divclass="entry-meta"> Posted on <ahref="http://www.alphabetagamer.com/jet-racing-extreme-alpha-download/" title="7:29 pm" rel="bookmark"> ...
