I'd tweak it slightly with a much more narrow:

Find: <body id="[^"]+" class="calibre">
Replace: <body class="calibre">

Find: html#[^"]+"/>
Replace: html"/>

Those 2 regexes are kind of saying:
  • "Hey! Keep going as long as you're NOT a quotation mark!"

It's a little bit safer than .*?, which can sometimes go crazy if you weren't expecting it.
