Well, you can still extend the pattern, if you find it limiting. It was
meant as an example...
As for SRC, the only other place I know is after <SCRIPT, and I assumed
(wrongly, maybe) that you didn't want the links for javascript files.
There is maybe on other place you want to check, the value="..." of embedded
applets and such. For flash thingies, it is a little bit more complex, since
the <param name=movie value="xxx.swf"> is only a link to a .swf animation,
that has to be downloaded and inspected to find the link. If you are brave
enough, look for:
urlxxx.htmlwindowxxxFrame
inside the .swf file to get url and target info.
But that would have to be dealt separately.
Javascript calls are catched if my regex (that's what the \( \) : and ; are
here for...), so this is not an issue...
I don't see any other things to catch, but, then again, I am not an HTML
expert.
This will enable you to catch also flash <param name=movie value="xxx.swf">:
<\s*(?=[ABIP])\w+\s+([-=\w./:@&';\(\)%]+\s+)*(?=[VSBH])(src|background|href|
value)\s*=\s*[""']?([-=?\w./:@&';\(\)%]+)[^>]*>
