Thanks for that hint and for caring about my fingers ;-) but I thought that /[hH][rR][eE][fF]/ was cheaper than /href/i. Am I wrong on that?

    Your original regex may be cheaper than the one that uses the i option, but the difference is so miniscule as to not matter. At that point, clarity is more important than speed.
