Filter links from HTML with these regular expressions

A quick & dirty way to filter all links from a given piece of HTML code. Does not filter attributes.

<\/*?(?![^>]*?\b(?:a)\b)[^>]*?>

This one is a bit greedier #

And also filters anchor texts and is a replace:

(?i)<a\shref=\"([^>]+)\">(.+?)</a>

Since it's a replace, replace the found matches with:

$1    $2
