I have string="""<span class="test456">55</span>. <td><span class="test123">128</span> <span class="test789">170</span> """
where I need to replace <span class="test456">55</span>. <span class="test789">170</span> by space. So I tried ############# import re string="""<td><span class="test456">55</span>.<span class="test123">128</span><span class="test789">170</span> """ Newstring=re.sub(r'<span class="test(?!123)">.*</span>'," ",string) ########### But it does NOT work. Can anyone explain why? Thank you L. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
