I love the famous answer by bobince regarding using regular expressions for parsing of text with HTML (and other markup) tags.
It is probably one of the most-linked questions answers on Stack Overflow.
However, seeing it linked to in this question got me thinking. Is it linked so often because people asking related questions are not finding it because the title is a little too specific? ("RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags")?
If the title were "Using RegEx to match HTML tags" or even "Using RegEx to match tags" would people be more likely to come across it? I have a suspicion that "XHTML," "Open Tags," and "Self-contained" are keywords that might cause people to think it doesn't apply to their case.
Thoughts?
