OK, I've tried using the regex as recommended, but now it's messing things up.

When I search this:

Code:

 <p class="p32">(.*?)</p>

And replace it with this:

Code:

 <h1 class="p20">(\1)</h1>

It changes this:

Code:

 <p class="p32"><span id="chapter-5"></span>Coming Home</p>

To this:

Code:

 <h1 class="p20">(<span id="chapter-5"></span>Coming Home)</h1>

That's just one chapter example, but it puts parentheses around all the chapter titles. What am I missing here??

Any help truly appreciated as regex is not easy for me.
