in thread Regexps to change HTML tags/attributes

<font color="FAFA519">test</font> ...
Do you like all of those font tags? Most browsers will render all of them identically.

I have never, ever run into a font tag like that in the wild. No tools that I know of will generate such tags. They have to be mis-coded by hand. If the corpus you're dealing with is "safe" (e.g., all generated by working tools), then you probably won't need to worry about these at all.

    I'm looking into altering in-line stlyles first, then delving into embedded style sheets next.

    It's laborious and not-a-little pointless, as tried-and-tested HTML parser modules are available. My project aim is to look into the pros and cons of changing HTML with regexps.

    Cheers
