Hi,

Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question, I just dont know too much about regexp but I seemed to compile a little bit.

I want to change all backslashes \ to forward slashes /, that I have in many html files, however I only want to do it for slashes within the <a> tag. I have 2 started solutions that I cant seem to get over a hump with.

1.
<a[^>]*>
This will highlight all my link tags. I would like to use <a[\\]*> instead but then there is no padding. THe only way that will work is for one slash and if the html link looks like <a\>, and that will never occur.
I need this to work on html tags like the following example:
<a href = "blah\blah\blah..." >
and avoid all other slashes outside this tag.

2.
Solution to was provided by a friend who doesnt have much knowledge, but more than me and he wanted to use a lookback but again ran into trouble with a fixed length variable.
(?<=<a)\\(?=>)
I dont understand this method too much.

Thanks for you time.
