Jan,

both  and ]+/> have a "(.*)" that matches 
the longest string, ie from the first " in the line to the last " in the line.

What you want is something like this:

regexp - what am i missing???

[Jan Erik Moström]

I want to a simple search on a text like this

-
/> lkhlkhl


/>


/> alt="" />


-

where I want to pick out the file paths, in other words four matches.

I first wrote this expression "" but it matches both 
items on the last lines (I don't understand why). I changed it to "src="(.*)"[^>]+/>" but with the same result.


What am missing?
