..NET regex is slightly different from PHP's PERL compatible regex. Remove
the comments, delimiters, modifiers, and ?P<name> and usually it's OK.
My favourite tool for decyphering other peoples regexes is Regex Workbench,
which also isn't fully compatible, but mostly get's the job done. This
interprets this pattern as follows:
<div
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
class="overview"
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
>
.. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
<div
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
class="header"
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
>
Capture
. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
Non-capturing Group
<div
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
>
. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
</div>
. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
End Capture
* (zero or more times)
End Capture
</div>
.. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
<div
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
class="content"
Any character not in ">"
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)

<div

>

* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
</div>
. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
End Capture
* (zero or more times)
End Capture
</div>
.. (any character)
* (zero or more times) (non-greedy)
<div

class="break"

</div>
