A client has ~7,000 products with a “Your Price: $…” in the description, the price is typed in (there is no existing wildcard).

Here is an example of a description:

<table cellpadding="5" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Part #: </strong></td><td>FIV000-2100</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Retail Price: </strong></td><td>$26.39</td></tr><tr><td class="price"><strong>Your Price: </strong></td><td class="price">$23.75</td></tr><tr><td align="center" colspan="2"/></tr></tbody></table>

Is there a regular expression to use to just remove the Your Price row? What is we wanted to remove the Retail Price row as well?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    You can do something like this (provided $str is the html string):

    $pattern = "/<tr><td class=\"price\"><strong>Your Price: <\/strong><\/td><td class=\"price\">\\$[0-9.]+<\/td><\/tr>/";
$str = preg_replace($pattern, "", $str);

    The empty string will replace it with nothing, thus removing it.

    EDIT:

    Escaped some stuff to make it work. I also urge you to use a HTML parser. Let’s call this the quick and dirty method.
