This is not strictly speaking a Joomla question- but I bet someone out
there will know the answer.

Why does a GREP search not find this: <div.+?</div>

I want to use GREP to strip out 15 or so instances of these tags and what's
between them: <div class="result-description"> and </div> But GREP only
gives me an annoying beep and wont find this. I can do it all by hand of
course, but it's driving me crazy that this isn't working.

FYI: I'm using Textwrangler to clean the code out of some source code so
I can use the copy in a newsletter, and I'm doing it this way to retain the
a tags.

Any advice?

Thanks A.

Hi Andrea,

With Textwrangler using the PCRE flavor of regex, I tested this at
http://www.regextester.com/ and it seems to work. Both <div.+?</div>
and <div.+</div> matched <div class="result-description">bob</div> of <div
class="result-description">bob</div><span>.

Could this be an issue with Textwrangler versus being an issue with your
expression?

Best,

Thanks for the link to this site! And I think you're right, it's TextWrangler. They have a support line- so I'll go bug them! ;-)

Thanks again!

I figured it out. Textwrangler was reading invisibles... Who knew?
