mystring=rereplacenocase(mystring,"<FONT[^>]*>","","ALL")>
What this says is... find a < followed by the word FONT, followed by zero or more characters that are not a > followed by a > Yours said... Find a string that starts with <FONT and ends with a > with nothing else in the string. (The ^ indicates start at the begining of the string (or line)) (The $ indicates ends at the end of a string (or line)) So you were basically checking for a string that was <FONT> HTH Jerry >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/19/02 11:29AM >>> If I want to do a regular expression replace to remove several (but not all HTML tags) what is the syntax that I should use. I want the expresion to find, for example, the '<font and end at the '>' tag regardless of what is in the middle. I've tried this <cfset mystring=rereplacenocase(mystring,"^<FONT$>","","ALL")> but that doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help Daron J.
