标签的正则表达式有效，但不具有特定的ID？

Question

The following regex:

(?!<script[^>]*>)[(.*?)](?![^<]*<\/script>)

Targets every [TEXT] and [INPUT] there is in the input string, except any [] within a script tag.

I would now like to change this, to have the exception to be on a specific script with id="special" instead.

So <script id="special">[INPUT]</script> should not be targeted while another script tag without the id special, like <script>[INPUT]</script> should together with the rest of the string.

I tried adding id="special" to the above regex before [^>]*>, but doesn't work.

You can skip everything inside a script element with that id by using the PCRE verbs skip and fail.

<script id="special">.*?<\/script>(*SKIP)(*FAIL)|\[[^\]]+?\]

You can read more about this here, http://www.rexegg.com/backtracking-control-verbs.html#skipfail.

If a string is HTML a parser should be used because there can be all sorts of variations in the elements and attributes.

For example:

<script  id="special">
<script src="page" id="special">
<script src="page" id="special" class="why?">
<script id='special'>
<script id=special>
<script id=special src=page>

without even entering the layered elements issue. Here's one thread on why regexs and HTML shouldn't go together. RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags
