By default, `findRE` finds all matches. You can limit the number of matches with an optional LIMIT argument.

This example returns a slice of all second level headings (`h2` elements) within the rendered `.Content`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go-html-template
|
||
|
|
{{ findRE `(?s)<h2.*?>.*?</h2>` .Content }}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `s` flag causes `.` to match `\n` as well, allowing us to find an `h2` element that contains newlines.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To limit the number of matches to one:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go-html-template
|
||
|
|
{{ findRE `(?s)<h2.*?>.*?</h2>` .Content 1 }}
|
||
|
|
```
