regular-expressions

I'd like to know whether it exists a way to put the following HTML tags in a regex. What I want is a regex that can match all the start tags with their corresponding closing tags. E.g.,

Hello

There might be more tags inside. I had thought of something like this: ^<([a-z]+)([^<]+)(?:>(.)</\1>|\s+/>)$/, but it wont work. Sorry if this question doesnt belong to this section. Thank you.
