It would have been easier to help me if I'd stated the problem more accurately.
I am going to have some text that is HTML tags and other text that is not. I simply want to skip over the stuff that is HTML tags. Sounds easy-- if it's inside of angle brackets, don't change it. Example: <A HREF="http://www.drseuss.com/THE-CAT-IN-THE-HAT.png";>THE-CAT-IN-THE- HAT</A> becomes <A HREF="http://www.drseuss.com/THE-CAT-IN-THE-HAT.png";>the-cat-in-the- hat</A> The problem is, I can't figure out how to say "if it's in angle brackets, don't change it." There is no telling what will be inside those brackets. Thanks again for your help. c On May 21, 11:40 pm, Maarten Sneep <[email protected]> wrote: > Op 22 mei 2011 om 05:14 heeft ChristianBoyce <[email protected]> het > volgende geschreven: > > > But, if I have something like this: > > > "IT WAS A LOW-BUDGET AFFAIR and their WEBSITE ADDRESS > > washttp://www.LOW-BUDGET.com"; > > I don't want to change the URL.
