The filePath rule only matches the first character. You probably
want to write (+ [a-z "."]). Same issue for whitespace.

Same problem here.
If the basics work you can try to generalize this a bit. E.g.
(imgTag "<img" whitespace (* attribute whitespace) ">")
(attribute (or src height width alt))
(src "src" whitespace "=" whitespace "\"" filePath \"\"")
etc.

So far only 2 people asked questions. If there are some more we can set
up a mailing list.
