Hi Guys,
I'd like remove contents between tags <email> that matches pattern
"WORD1" as follows:
Change
"stuff <email>word1-emai...@domain.com</email> more stuff
<email>word1-emai...@domain.com</email> still more stuff
<email>word2-emai...@domain.com</email> stuff after WORD2
<email>word1-emai...@domain.com</email>"
To
"stuff more stuff still more stuff
<email>word2-emai...@domain.com</email> stuff after WORD2 "
The following did not work
newl = re.sub (r'<email>WORD1-.*</email>',"",line)
Please remember to explain "did not work".
Did you get an exception?
Did you get unexpected results? If so what were they?
