Need help with StringRegExpReplace

[MarioX]

I'm looking for assistance in finding correct RegExp syntiax.

I need to strip out html code from a string like the following:

CODE

<tr><td align=right nowrap>&-nbsp 16 Apr 2007 </td>

Leaving only the date 16 Apr 2007

The below code work fine stripping out everything except the &-nbsp. How to do this ?

CODE

$input="<tr><td align=right nowrap> &-nbsp 15 Apr 2007 </td>"

$output = StringRegExpReplace($input, '(?s)(?i)\<[^\>]*\>', '')

MsgBox(0,"Result",$output)

Note: The real word to remove is &-nbsp without the - , Posting without - clear the code

Thanking in advance for any help

Um not really sure on StringRegExpReplace, but string replace should do the trick:

This worked well:

$input="<tr><td align=right nowrap>&nbsp 16 Apr 2007 </td>"
$output = StringRegExpReplace($input, '(?s)(?i)\<[^\>]*\>', '')
$output = StringReplace ($output, "&nbsp", "")
MsgBox(0,"Result",$output)

It work, thanks for the suggestion!
