I am trying to use the follwing regex https://regex101.com/library/hsAqlt

<\/al>\s*(<a\X*)<al>

This works fine on the provided regex101 link/site, but visual studio is giving me the following error:

Regex issue: Unrecognized escape sequence \X

Does anyone know why this is and/or know an alternative way of achieving my goal.

Some extra info, I am using/have installed:

You need `(?>\P{M}\p{M}*)` – Wiktor Stribiżew Nov 25 '21 at 11:44

Thanks! however This does not seem to work on regex101.com, maby I am making a mistake here or trying it wrong, Can you incorperate this in my regex as example? I am now trying this ```<\/al>\s*(\P{M}\p{M}*))``` but it wont match.... – Jordi van Dijk Nov 25 '21 at 11:50

You are making a mistake trying to check a .NET regex at regex101 that is not compatible with .NET regex. And you need `\s*(\P{M}\p{M}*)*)` – Wiktor Stribiżew Nov 25 '21 at 11:52
