Hi Guys,
I'd like remove contents between tags <email> that matches pattern "WORD1"
as follows:
Change
"stuff <email>WORD1-EMAILID at DOMAIN.COM</email> more stuff
<email>WORD1-EMAILID at DOMAIN.COM</email> still more stuff
<email>WORD2-EMAILID at DOMAIN.COM</email> stuff after WORD2
<email>WORD1-EMAILID at DOMAIN.COM</email>"
To
"stuff more stuff still more stuff
<email>WORD2-EMAILID at DOMAIN.COM</email> stuff after WORD2 "
The following did not work
newl = re.sub (r'<email>WORD1-.*</email>',"",line)
Thanks in advance!
