In which the number in red could be any numbers from 1 to 500 or even more.

Thanks for your help.
Is there an online tool or Mac software that can help in building regular expressions from examples of what one want to select ? It would be great!
This site is highly regarded ==>> Regex Tutorial, Examples and Reference

It has a couple of utilities, RegExMagic and RegExBuddy, that some people find useful.

You should be able to remove those tags with this Editor plugin ==>> Diaps Editing Toolbag
