Hello Simon,

I'm trying to build a filter that will extract just the unique text from several HTML pages from our website I've tried to use find and replace to remove the template (reappearing) html, java script, text and images from each page but can't figure out how to get it to remove more than one line at a time. An example of a page is at http://newcar101.com/auto-loan.html

Any help would be appreciated.

Why don't you try using the search/replace filter - and just replace with nothing? The search/replace filter handles multi-line text too.

Hi Simon,

That worked. Thank you.

On other question. When I use the filter to remove HTML tags can I except certain tags that I want to keep?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Ed,

No - but if you precede the Remove HTML filter with a filter to modify the tags you want to keep to, say, [...] instead of <...> then this will work too.

e.g. Find perl pattern

<(\?(body|table|tr)[^>]*)>

Replace with

\[$1\]

Thanks Simon.
