Description

The current pattern used for extracting tags from the tags field:

Pattern tagPattern = Pattern.compile("."tagName"=\"(.?)\".*");

Doesn't work very well. If you pass tagName "bar", will also match (and return) the content of foobar="dssad" tag.

The proposed path is more correct, and also faster than using .*
