Hello, I am newish to recipes but got some to work before. However I am having a problem replacing tags in a recipe.

Some sections of text are blue and naturally these don't show up on an eBook reader. I have tried the re.compile function but it doesn't work for me at least how I do it:

I want to swap the tag:

Code:

<span style="color: blue;">

With an italics tag (so either just make it <i> or make the span class italics).

Any advice, I couldn't find anything in search that worked?

PS - I've tried a few variants of this, eg things like

Code:

preprocess_regexps     = [(re.compile(r'<span style="color: blue;">', re.IGNORECASE), '<i>')]
