Take a look at 'filter' mode of ANTLR lexer. This will let you skip
text you are not interested in.<br>
<br>
Posting a more specific example of what you need might help.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">How does one write a grammar that can match a
variety of
rules, including things like nested brackets and the like, but if it
can’t
match a section of the input, it always has a “fall through” rule

something like “plainText” such that parsing <i>never</i> fails. I’d
like it to take anything it doesn’t understand and simply pass it
through
as a text node.<o:p></o:p></p>
