        So what am I doing wrong  and how do I make a case
insensitive tr/// regexp?

Thanks for your help,

--As for the rest, it is mine.


You can't make a case insensitive tr/// regexp: tr/// doesn't do regexp. It does transliteration: it replaces the characters in the first part with the respective ones in the second part.

You want the s/// operator:
s/\<font.*\>//i
