Finding the multiple zeros within a prescribed interval

I wish to solve the nonlinar function:
=0
within a prescribed interval, say (0,100] say, I'm aware of using an annonymous function and using fzero or fsolve, but how do I get say multiple solutions?

deltax = 1e-4;
xright = 100;
n = floor(xright/pi);
fun = @(x)tan(x)-x;
for i=1:n
left = (2*i-1)*pi/2.0 + deltax;
right = (2*i+1)*pi/2.0 - deltax;
sol(i) = fzero(fun,[left right]);
end
sol
fun(sol)

No, the strategy to find all zeros of a function in a specified interval will always depend on the behaviour of the function itself. So no general guideline can be given.
Imagine, for example, that you were instead trying to find all roots of contained in the interval [0,a]. No matter what you choose, there would always be infinite roots in the interval.

@Matthew Hunt:
You know that tan(x) -x -> -Inf for x->2*(k-1)*pi/2 from the right and tan(x) - x -> +Inf for x->2*(k+1)*pi/2 from the left. So there must be a root in the interval 2*(k-1)*pi/2 : 2*(k+1)*pi/2. Plotting the function tan(x) - x you can see that there is exactly one root in this interval. This explains my code and the fact that it captures all roots in a specified interval.
