attribute=\"value\"  //inside the quotes there can be everything also other es         


        

Answer 1

Give this a try and see if it is what you want to extract from the tags.

preg_match_all('/( \\w{1,}="\\w{1,}"| \\w{1,}=\\w{1,}| \\w{1,})/i', 
    $content, 
    $result, 
    PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);
$result = $result[0];

The regex pulls each attribute, excludes the tag name, and puts the results in an array so you will be able to loop over the first and second attributes.
