regex - Ruby Reg Ex Identify Pipe Within Quotes -

i want regex identify pipe characters within double quotes.

i using

\".+\|.+\"

which correctly matches on '1|some "quote | text"|4' , correctly not match on '1|some "quoted" text|4'

however, matches on '1|some "quoted" text|4|5|6|more "quoted" text|9' because there 2 sets of quotes - sees outer-most quotes , pipes between.

how alter regex not match in case?

update: turns out need match on multiple pipes within quotes. had been using:

/\"([^|]+)\|([^|]+)\"/

which works 1 pipe within quotes, such "1|some "quote | text"|4", need match on "1|some "quote | text | | pipes"|4".

any ideas???

instead of using .+ matches character, want match character except |. want [^|]+. based on have written, should want.
