Question Regex help
How can I find and remove all occurrences of the following:

Code:
<a class="calibre7" id="pb-rw_36"></a>
taking into account that the class is always the same but the id is uniqe for each link?

I've been searching the forum and trying different combinations but so far no luck.

Many thanks!

I suck at regular expressions, but this one should work:

PHP Code:
<a class="calibre7" id="(.*?)"></a>

Perfect, Doitsu.

It didn't work in Sigil 0.4.2 but worked perfectly in Sigil 0.5.3.

Fantastic.

One more regex to my just started collection.

Many thanks.

Something I often find quite handy is to clean specific empty tags with a specific attribute (id, class etc).
Code:
<(p|h\d|div|a)\b[^<>]*?(id="blarg")[^<>]*?>([\s\n\r]|&(nb|en|em|thin)sp;|</?br\s*/?>)*</\1>
I cant remember why I use the extra \r\n; but there was a reason... might have just been old QtRegEx

Many thanks, Serpentine.

Another one for the collection.
