Hello. i'm new to UE.
i'm converting html file to a txt file daily.
so i was looking for tool that can do it automatically.
let's say my source looks like this.

<LINE TO REMOVE #1>
5342 : EXAMPLE #1
<tr><remove this line>
<LINE TO REMOVE #3>
6242 : EXAMPLE #2
<tr><remove this line>
<LINE TO REMOVE #4>
6424 : EXAMPLE #3
<tr><remove this line>


i want to remove all of above lines.

Rule #1 : remove lines that contains LINE TO REMOVE
Rule #2 : remove lines that starts with numeric characters
Rule #3 : remove lines that starts with <tr>

is it possible?
Thanks in advance

Hi r4bb1t

Right off the top of my head there's a macro called
HTML Strip Macros
https://www.ultraedit.com/resources/macros/htmstrip.zip

Maybe someone else has a better idea!

Hello MrBillG.
Thanks for reply.

i've tried that macro and it works a bit different with my needs
i think this macro deletes everything between < >
i need file locations of 'a href' links. it's not for me.
but thank for your kindness MrBillG.

any other comments would be appreciate.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for answer mrainey56.
you were very helpful
it's working as what i requested.
but can i ask one more thing?
after your macro, i got this result.

| http://filelocation/is/here1.asp random text
| http://filelocation/is/here2.asp r a n d o m text 2
| http://filelocation/is/here3.asp ra nd om te xt 3

I want to reformat these into..

random text | http://filelocation/is/here1.asp
r a n d o m text 2 | http://filelocation/is/here2.asp
ra nd om te xt 3 | http://filelocation/is/here3.asp


i have tried ^(|.*..asp) ^([a-z]) then replace ^2 ^1 but it's not working atm.
first string grouped between | and .asp
second string is random texts.(including numerics)
can you point me what i'm wrong?
Thank you very much

ahh
i didn't realized that, mrainey56.
however now it's working.
you saved a lot of my time hehe

Thank you very much.
i got to learn more about UE.
very useful
