texte = I know jack about grep, though I'm planning to learn it. I *think* it's whatI want to use in this situation, but I'm open to any other options, too.I have to format some stories with WebCat and export them to a text file,and I need to cut some HTML tags and their contents out of stories if theyare present.The story bodies are stored as text files by a unique story ID (as[articleID].txt), but all the meta info (author, articleID, etc.) is storedin a WebCat db, and I'm pulling the story in via [include]. The bulk of theWebDNA on the page looks functionally like this:[search for stories][founditems][writefile file=...]some header infoblahblahblah[grep search=????&replace=][include file=path/to/[articleID].txt][/grep][/writefile]story: [articleID] was exported.
[/founditems][/search]How would I strip the following from a story:Anything between (and including the div tag):
I basically need (assuming [grep] is the best way to do this) the grepsearch for ???? in my [grep] context above.I'm open to other ways of doing this, but [convertWords] doesn't seem tohave a wild character scheme to use.Thanks!Steven--Steven JarvisWeb DeveloperThe Morning NewsNWAonline.net-------------------------------------------------------------This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
