For example there is this line:

<a title="best title in the world" href="http://website.com/15661-erko-rhyno/">! Erko_Rhyno !</a>

Now my code returns:

15661-erko-rhyno/">! Erko_Rhyno !

Im using:

(?<=\<strong\>\<a title\=\"best title in the world\" href\=\"http:\/\/www\.website\.com\/web\/index\.php\/user\/).*?(?=\<\/a\>\<\/strong\>)

Now I need that it would be without 15661-erko-rhyno/"> like this:

! Erko_Rhyno !

I know why it returns with 15661-erko-rhyno/"> because I specified only ignore this part:

<strong><a title="best title in the world" href="http://www.webste.com/web/index.php/user/

But there is the problem now u see this part:

15661-erko-rhyno/">`

Always changes and I don't know how to ignore this part, I will repeat myself and will provide again the code that I'm suing to ignore characters that I don't need::

(?<=\<strong\>\<a title\=\"best title in the world\" href\=\"http:\/\/www\.website\.com\/web\/index\.php\/user\/).*?(?=\<\/a\>\<\/strong\>)

Maybe someone could provide example or answer what I should put in order to ignore those lines whats left?

Just ignore the > character like

\>([^\>]+)\<\/a\>

to get ! Erko_Rhyno ! in group(1)
