You need a non-greedy match:
src="(.*?)"

Hello,
Here is my problem. I'd appreciate any help.
I have the string:
src="some.gif" alt="some information" width="100"
I want to capture in a subgroup the value of whatever comes after src= and
is contained within the first set of quotes. In the example above, it
would be some.gif
I am using the Perl5 contains with the expression:
src="(.*)"
which produces the result:
Match 1: src="some.gif" alt="some information" width="100"
Subgroups:
1: some.gif" alt="some information" width="100
Which isn't what I want. I want only
Subgroups:
1: some.gif
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Again, thanks in advance for any help.
