Visual Studio Regex Help

I am using regex in Find / Replace in VS IDE. I need to replace a line message="My message"

in all aspx files with an empty line. The html looks like this:

<input id="test" message="My message"/>

I am trying to use regex to search message="{.*}"

, but it doesn't work.

Try message = "{[^"] *} "

Because * greedy, it will grab until it finds the last quote , not the next quote you want. By telling this expression to capture all unquoted characters, you can make sure it only captures until the next one.



message = "{[^"] *} "

use message = "[^ \"] * "
