<p dir="auto">The solution you gave me worked for most of the cases.</p>
<p dir="auto">However some of the images that I have are in the text like this:</p>
<p dir="auto">&lt;img alt=""<br />
src="<a href="http://www.mysite.com/imagenes/image.jpg%5C" rel="nofollow ugc">http://www.mysite.com/imagenes/image.jpg\</a>"&gt;</p>
<p dir="auto">and the above solution does not work.<br />
Any other idea?</p>
<p dir="auto">Best regards!!</p>

<p dir="auto">THANK YOU for your quick response Meta Chuh.</p>
<p dir="auto">Your solution works for me for some cases, but for other cases it does not.</p>
<p dir="auto">It does not work for the cases I have two images together. The first of the domain <a href="http://google.com" rel="nofollow ugc">google.com</a> and the second of the searched domain (in this case <a href="http://youtube.com" rel="nofollow ugc">youtube.com</a>)</p>
<p dir="auto">Example :<br />
&lt;img src = "http: <a href="//www.google.com/imagenes/123.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">//www.google.com/imagenes/123.jpg</a> "&gt;<br />
&lt;img src =  “http: <a href="//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg</a>”&gt;</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>I want to select only:</strong><br />
&lt;img  src = “http: <a href="//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg</a>”&gt;</p>
<p dir="auto"><strong>But in practice, notepad selects :</strong></p>
<p dir="auto">&lt;img alt = src = "http: <a href="//www.google.com/imagenes/123.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">//www.google.com/imagenes/123.jpg</a> "&gt;<br />
&lt;img alt = src =  "http: <a href="//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg" rel="nofollow ugc">//www.youtube.com/imagenes/456.jpg</a> "&gt;</p>
<p dir="auto">I appreciate your support</p>
<p dir="auto">From already thank you very much!!</p>

<p dir="auto">I’d certainly give this a go as a first shot:</p>
<p dir="auto">Find <code>(?s)&lt;table&gt;.*?&lt;/table&gt;</code><br />
Replace <code>wtf_knows</code><br />
Search mode: Reg. expression</p>
