How to match multiple occurrences of a substring

Question

If I have an HTML string such as:

£2056
<         


        

Answer 1

Just allow the group to be repeated: (?:...)+ means "Match ... 1 or more times:

str.match(/\d+(?:<[^>]*>)+\d+/)

As per Alan Moore's suggestion, I've also changed the \d* into \d+, making the numbers required instead of optional.
