Regex: Select all lines that do not contain some particular words in front of another particular words (tags)
0
I want to find a regex formula as to select all line that does not have <p class="test_formal"> in front of <span class="test_formal2">
<p class="test_formal"><span class="test_formal2">
I made a regex, but is not too good.
(?s)A(?!.*?(?<!w)(<span class="test_formal2">)(?!w)<p class="test_formal">).*
Can anyone help me a little bit?

This will match all lines that have:
<span class="test_formal2"> followed or not by <p class="test_formal">
But not <p class="test_formal"> followed by <span class="test_formal2">
Ctrl+F
- Find what:
^(?:(?!<p class="test_formal">).)*<span class="test_formal2">.*$
- check Wrap around
- check Regular expression
- UNCHECK
. matches newline - Search in document
Explanation:
^ # beginning of line
(?: # start non capture group
(?! # negative lookahead, make sure we haven't
<p class="test_formal"> # literally
) # end lookahead
. # 1 any character
)* # end group, may appear 0 or more times
<span class="test_formal2"> # literally
.* # 0 or more any character
$ # end of line
Given:
<p class="test_formal">
<span class="test_formal2">
<p class="test_formal"><span class="test_formal2">
blah blah <p class="test_formal"><span class="test_formal2"> blah blah
<span class="test_formal2"><p class="test_formal">
blah blah <span class="test_formal2"><p class="test_formal"> blah blah
It matches:
Search "^(?:(?!<p class="test_formal">).)*<span class="test_formal2">.*$" (3 hits in 1 file)
new 2 (3 hits)
Line 2: <span class="test_formal2">
Line 5: <span class="test_formal2"><p class="test_formal">
Line 6: blah blah <span class="test_formal2"><p class="test_formal"> blah blah

thank you, Toto. But there is a small problem. The regex should find only those line which necessarily contain<span class="test_formal2">. So, your regex selects inverse, first of all those line that contains <p class="test_formal">. See this update regex101.com/r/YEcK8e/2
– Rob Rob
Dec 30 '18 at 15:05
ok, I find the problem. Update a little bit your regex, just add!in fist paranthesis, right before<p class="test_formal">. Works. So, please update your regex answer with this^(?:(?:.*?!<p class="test_formal">(?:(?!<span class="test_formal2">).)*)|(?:(?!<p class="test_formal">).)*<span class="test_formal2">.*)$
