正如标题所说，我的在线测试程序中的正则表达式可以工作，但是当我在我的应用程序中使用它时效果较差（即缺少一些匹配）。
我正在开发一个应用程序来获取wikiquotes的引用并将它们呈现给用户。用于确定哪些HTML块可能包含引号的正则表达式看起来相当可靠。我用来获取作者姓名的正则表达式存在问题。 get_author函数包含在浏览器中运行时似乎缺少匹配的正则表达式模式，即使它在与在线工具一起使用时成功匹配。 Here is my regex in the tester, with the regex pattern and the HTML string I am parsing.
注意：我知道我的正则表达式在匹配/匹配太多HTML块时会出现一些错误。这不是我的问题，一旦我理解了这些差异来自何处，我将努力改进正则表达式。
这个问题的原因是什么？

He is the only animal that for sordid wages will march out…and help to slaughter strangers of his own species who have done him no harm and with whom he has no quarrel … and in the intervals between campaigns he washes the blood off his hands and works for "the universal brotherhood of man" — with his mouth.

答案 0 :(得分：1)
我已经睡着了，发现了问题/解决方案。
<强> TL; DR
从正则表达式模式中删除全局标志（我这里不需要全局标志，所以我选择删除它）; 或
在每次搜索之前将lastIndex属性设置回0。即
re.lastIndex = 0;
re.exec(your_string_to_search_goes_here);
<强>解释
我设置了全局标志，但是迭代地将正则表达式模式应用于数组的每个元素。如果设置了全局标志，则在找到匹配项时，regex对象会更新lastIndex属性。这非常有用，因此无论您最终使用哪种模式匹配函数，都知道在每次匹配字符串中的内容之后从哪里开始。
对于我的用例，全局标志是完全没必要的，因为我已经将字符串元素化以搜索到数组，并且我知道如果要匹配，我希望是1并且只有1，所以记住搜索模式最后的位置是无关紧要的 - 如果它不匹配，则移动到下一个数组元素。
