Hi, I have the string <span xxxx> 111 </span> 2222 <span yyyy> 3333 </span> And i wish to use sed to strip *only* the "<span xxxx>" tag and its contents... is this possible ? I'm trying this expression, but it doesn't work... sed 's/<span xxxx[^\(</span>\)]+<\/span>//g' file is there anything like it ? I would like to obtain 2222 I hope someone can help, thank you, siran
