Regex?

Am trying hard to learn enough about Regex to where it can be of some help to me. I pretty much got the hang of building some useful simple expressions, but have reached the point where I need some help.

The Regex tutorial is really great; but it talks about a "Regex Wizard" and a "Regex Test Button" -- both of which would be very helpful -- but I can't find them.

Also,the tutorial provides excellent instruction on using a regex in the 'find' box, but nothing about how to develop a regex for the 'replacement' box. For instance, I would like to find certain strings with specific opening and closing tags, each of which have various strings between them, and replace the open and closing tags but preserving what is included between them.

Just a little kick in the right direction should do it.
