Altered the 'attribValue' expression to pick up more than just \w's so that it would pick up patterns such as: <LINK href="/regexp.css" type=text/css rel="stylesheet"> ******************************** UPDATED EXPRESSION ******************************** (?'openingTag'<)\s*?(?'tagName'\??\w+)(\s*?(?>(?!=[\/\?]?>)(?'attribName'\w+)(?:\s*(?'attribSign'=)\s*)(?'attribValue'(?:\'[^\']*\'|\"[^\"]*\"|[^ >]+))))*\s*?(?'closeTag'[\/\?]?>)
