Help with regex and <p> tag

[Guilherme]

Hi,

I need to create a regex to extract 4 paragraphs of a text:

<p>

<b>Topic </b>–

abc

</p>

<p>abcd</p>

<p>abcde</p>

<p>abcdef</p>

<p>abcdefg</p>

I need to extract 4 paragraphs (text inside <p></p> including some html code) of this text using a regex.

How can I solve this problem ? I've tried a lot but I cant do this.

Thanks in advance.

The standard advice would be to not use regular expressions - use an html parser like nokogiri.

Thanks in advance.

Yes sir.

Thanks for the tip.

This code makes the magic:

      doc = Nokogiri::HTML("<p>test</p>")

      doc.search("p")
