I am using The following regex pattern to find text between [code]
and [/code]
tags:
(?<=[code]).*?(?=[/code])
I would use a HTML Parser for this. I can see that what you are trying to do is simple, however these things have a habit to get much more complicated overtime. The end result is much pain for the poor sole who has to maintain the code in the future.
Take a look at this question about HTML Parsers
What is the best way to parse html in C#?
[Edit]
Here is a much more relevant answer to the question asked.
@Milad Naseri regex is correct you just need to do something like
string matchCodeTag = @"\[code\](.*?)\[/code\]";
string textToReplace = "[code]The Ape Men are comming[/code]";
string replaceWith = "Keep Calm";
string output = Regex.Replace(textToReplace, matchCodeTag, replaceWith);
