Hi,

I've got some HTML in a string, strContent.

Can anyone tell me how to use ASP to match and replace (remove, actually)
image tags from the HTML within that string?

For example, everything from 
<img src="all miscellaneous HTML until the closing bracket">

If I could turn it into a function, it would be double cool, but even a
simple command would be great.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Mike

You need "regular expressions" or something that can replace text that 
fits a pattern, but isn't necessarily exactly the same each time:

Dim strStart, strLookfor, strReplacewith, strResult, myReg
strStart = "<td width=""170""><a href=""/""><img " & _
    "src=""/images/layout/headlogo.gif"" alt=""macworld"" " & _
    "width=""170""" height=""73"" border=""0""></a></td>"
strLookfor = "<img.+?>"
strReplacewith = ""
strResult = ""

Set myReg =  New RegExp
myReg.IgnoreCase = True
myReg.Global = True
myReg.Pattern = CStr(strLookfor)
strResult = myReg.Replace(CStr(strStart), CStr(strReplacewith))

Response.Write "RESULT: " & strResult
