I apologize for the basicness of this question, I am new to regular expressions and am having trouble getting my mind around the syntax. My question is how find and replace something that has two consistent markers, but a lot of variation inbetween, that covers multiple lines. e.g.:
<head> <varying tags> other text not in tags <more> stuff <title> I want to replace everything between <head> and <title> Through reading the BBEdit manual, I was able to find out .*? would act as my non-greedy wildcard except that it get caught on the line breaks. I see that there are special characters for line breaks (in this case it looks like \r) and other wildcards that include linebreaks (like \s), but I can't figure out how to add either one to the expression. Would someone please tell me how to do this and why it works? Thanks in advance for any help with this. -- Douglas Knapp Technology Coordinator American Bar Association General Practice, Solo & Small Firm Division knappd2@ Visit us online: http://abanet.org/genpractice -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Have a feature request?
