      I have an HTML document with multiple <tags> right after each other. I would like to edit it so that all tags start on a new line so

      <ul class=“mh-sub”><li class=“odd”><p class=“mh-no-listing”>Some text</p></li></ul>

      becomes

      <ul class=“mh-sub”>
      <li class=“odd”>
      <p class=“mh-no-listing”>Some text</p>
      </li>
      </ul>

      Note that the </p> is fine where it is.

      Is it possible to use Find / Replace to do this? Obviously I would find “><”, but what would I enter into the replace box? I realise that using this method, lines like this:

      <script src=“1_files/1701549626756830.js” async=“”></script>

      which is fine as it is, would become

      <script src=“1_files/1701549626756830.js” async=“”>
      </script>

      but that is also fine.

      If I can’t use Find / Replace, is there something else I can do?

        The answer is to use “>\n<” in the Replace box.

        I had actually tried this before posting the question, but accidently used /n instead of \n.
