Try doing a NON-greedy search by putting a ? After your selector:
REReplaceNoCase(
inputxml,
"<text[^>]*>(.*?)<\/text>",
"",
"ONE"
)
Notice, (.*?) this should match the shortest possible string.

Subject: Replace content between tags (REReplaceNoCase)
Hello guys,
i have a problem with the following regex:
REReplaceNoCase(inputxml,"<text[^>]*>(.*)<\/text>","")
The regex should replace the tag <text> with all the content inside
(even other tags). It works fine if only one <text>...</text> is in the
whole string. But if theres a second or a third the replace works wrong.
Example String that works right:
"bla bla bla <text>bla bla <b>bla</b>bla</text> bla bla bla"
Example String that works false:
"bla bla bla <text>bla bla <b>bla</b>bla</text> bla bla bla <text>bla
bla <b>bla</b>bla</text>"
The replace will start at the first <text> and does end at the very last
</text> at the end of the string.
Does anyone have a idea how i have to optimize my expression?
