How to Use RegEx to Extract URL and Link Text from HTML Anchor Code?

[JMichaelTX]

@ComplexPoint

but generally, being lazy, I do prefer to let the browser do it for me : -)

Rob, I get your point, and I want to really thank you for all of your help.

I know you prefer a JavaScript solution, but I chose not to go that route for these reasons:

1. I needed a solution that would work with all Browsers, including FireFox, AND with any RTF app/document. JavaScript would not work with RTF documents, and AFAIK I can't use JS from KM with FF.
2. The RegEx solution works for everything.
3. The RegEx solution is simpler to me.
4. I currently don't have a JavaScript environment setup to code, test, and debug JS.
5. Re-learning Javascript
6. It's been years since I last coded JS
7. And that was in Windows and IE
8. When I look at your JS code I don't have a clue how to use/modify, as in outputting the Page Title and URL to separate KM variables

But my biggest hurdle right now to JS is #4, especially testing and debugging.

So, I'd like to post some JS questions in this thread:

Thanks again for everything.
