Re: Help: How to Find and Replace Tags

You're missing the parenthesis around the contents of the element. You have
to make it a capture group, so that you can reuse it.

I think this will do what you want it to.

Help: How to Find and Replace Tags

[bcross]

I want to find all instances of this tag in my document: 
.*?

and replace it with:
.*?  

But this does not work.
What is the correct way to do this?
