Monks:
Can you help me with a suggestion to have anything in a <script> tags deleted using a regex? I have tried this. s/<script>(.*?)</script>//g;, but it didn't work. I thought the (.*?) is for anything. Shed some light if you please, 
<script>

function showCalendar( field ){
gfPop.fPopCalendar(top.document.all[ field ]);
}

var timer=null;

function timerCheck(field, checkbox){
clearTimeout(timer);
checkBox(top.document.all[field].value, checkbox);
timer=setTimeout("timerCheck('"+field+"', '"+checkbox+"');", 1000);
}

function selectShifts(time){
var i=0;
while (document.FilterForm.shifts.options[i]!=null){
  if (document.FilterForm.shifts.options[i].value=="")
  document.FilterForm.shifts.options[i].selected=false;
  if (document.FilterForm.shifts.options[i].time==time)
  document.FilterForm.shifts.options[i].selected=true;
  i++;
}
checkBox("nonnull", 'useShifts');
}

function checkBox(value, checkbox){
if (value=="" || value==null)
document.FilterForm[checkbox].checked = false;
else
document.FilterForm[checkbox].checked = true;
  }

    function doNothing(){}

</script>
