I think I had dotall checked (my bad). Isn't there a RE flag to do that? Back to the cookbook

Agree that Replace All is 'dangerous'. If I have a lot of replaces, I do a Replace, Find Next until I'm pretty comfortable I didn't mess up, and then I just 'let 'er rip' (and hope for the best)

If I have to clean a pile of crap epub, I try to catch the low hanging fruit, and run the PI to clean the dead tags.

In that particular epub, one at a time would take forever.
