Sorry to bug you again, but can you do a quick sanity check? I think this one works:
<h[^h]*h[0-9] That finds any element that starts with <h and ends with hnum. I don't have to grab it perfectly, as long as I grab the contents...

You can only do it in CFMX. CF5 uses greedy regex matching. If you simply wrote <h[0-9]>(.*)</h[0-9]> then you would match say the first <h1> and the last </h1> in the doc. If there's only one, that would be fine, but if not you have a problem. With CFMX you can use non-greedy matching so this is resolved. How I would do it is first search for the <h?> and then search for the next </h?> from that point on. Then use mid() to cut out the matched section. ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
