Is there a way to use the Find/Replace feature in SS to only replace an expression within certain tags? For instance, I have <para> tags at different levels of the document, is there a way to remove all carriage returns ONLY within para tags?

Hi Kurt,
unfortunately that's not possible out of the box (you can only instruct the Search & Replace to work on the text nodes, all of them).
You could try using an XSLT stylesheet...

Sorry,
Alberto

So what would the template look like? I am not sure what the unicode string is for carriage return?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Kurt,
you can run this stylesheet on your XML file, using Saxon

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

<xsl:strip-space elements="para"/>

<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="."/>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Hope this helps,
Alberto

I tried this before, but tried it with the built-in, MSXML4 and Saxon 8.7.3 processors. It changes nothing. I tried the find-and-replace in SS (\r\n) you suggested before, but for some strange reason, it does NOT work in the para elements(?!?!?). It works in every other place. Even elements that are child elements to para it works.

Thanks for the information anyway.

Kurt

Hi Kurt,
could attach the file with a sample of the "para" tag? Maybe it
doesn't use a normal line feed...
