So, I'm going to throw caution to the wind, and try an re approach. It can't be any more unwieldy and ugly than what I've got going at the moment.
If you're going to try a new approach, I'd strongly suggest using a proper html/xml parser instead of re's. You'll almost certainly have an easier time using a tool that's designed for your specific problem domain than you will trying to force a more general tool to work. Since you're specifically trying to find (and replace) certain html tags and attributes, and that's exactly what html parsers *do*, well, the conclusions seems obvious (to me at least). ;)
There are lots of html parsing tools available in Python (though I've never needed one myself). I've heard lots of good things about BeautifulSoup...
