Sometimes the books I've bought have span class items many times, breaking up sentences etc. Below is an example from a B&N book. The nook did not display the paragraphs correctly and they ended up giving me a credit for the book.

<p class="pubitCssCls19"><span class="pubitCssCls18">But the one thing that isn’t strange is that anyone that does happen to notice, probably only has it occupy his or her attention for a few moments</span><span class="pubitCssCls18">.

Before they</span> <span class="pubitCssCls18">simply</span> <span class="pubitCssCls18">move on.</span>. . .</p>

After the find: <(div|span|p|b|i|u|h[1-6]|ol|ul|li|body) [^>]+>
replace: <\1>
I end up with a bunch of <span> & </span> left over as seen below:

I also loose any span class that is configured for italics.
SmoothRemove used to remove the extras, but leave italics and bolds. SmoothRemove will not install on my Windows 10 x64 computer - it says it is not compatible with the OS.
Any further ideas? (please note that I know the basics, but am not an expert at Sigil/CSS coding)
Thanks for your help.
