OK. It's implied, but I'm assuming you want these to stop being links, am I right? If so, you need to do something more like the following:
foo = REReplaceNoCase(foo,'<a class=jargon href="javascript:popUpJargonDefinition\([0-9]*\)">([^<]*)</a>',"\1", "all"); Note that I've removed the ^.* and the .*$ because these will cause the regex to match all of foo if it contains a matching link. I've also escaped the parens in the javascript call, so they are seen as parens in the text instead of a grouping operator. I also added "all" to the replacenocase call, so it will replace all instances.
