Re: regexp only matches on first match ;(

It probably does: from memory, you have to call gim.exec(text) again to "iterate" over the matches.

See https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Guide/Regular_Expressions, it works the same (given that it's a thin wrapper over the JS objects – and an emulation, in DevMode or otherwise "in a JVM").

this is my input:

hs<b>dfd<i>fs</i></b><i>d</i>f<u>d sdf fsd</u>&nbsp; fsd<br><br>

why doesn't it match on all the tags?
