Subject: Regular Expression interesting problem

Hi,
I'm learning about regular expressions right now for a html scraping
based assignment. But now I've reached a problem. Given below are two
different html tags.

<link
href="http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/help/rss/rss.xml"
rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="BBC NEWS | Help | RSS"
/>

<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="YouTube - Top
Favorites Today"
href="http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/standardfeeds/top_favorites?client=ytapi-youtube-index&time=today&v=2">

Now what i want is to capture the href-url if the type =
"application/rss+xml". It seems to be simple but it is the position of
the 'type' that creates the problem. In first tag the 'type' is after
href and in the second the 'type' is before it. It seems to me as an
interesting problem, but i need help for solving it. Please help me.

Regards
Arun Kumar
