      (?<=</)\x20+(?=\w+>)

      Thanks for the reply.

      I tried the code
      (?<=</)\x20+(?=\w+>)
      It does not seem to be taking an effect
      Here is the code

        Hi @NZ-Select

        The regex works fine for the provided examples, as I tested on Notepad++.

        For the new examples, try this one:

        Search: (?-s)< *?(/\w+) *?>
        Replace: <$1>
        

        Take care.

          Thank you, it indeed works in Notepad++

          What if I also want to remove like < / div >, in which the forward slash and div has a space?

          Here is the screenshot:

            Hi @NZ-Select

            I was expecting that one :) Easy to solve, indeed, the new regex solves this and the previous ones:

            Search: (?-s)< *?(/) *?(\w+) *?>
            Replace: <$1$2>
            

            Take care.

              A big thank you, it solved my problem beautifully.

              Amazing RegEx code!
              Saving me hours of work.
              And I hope it is helpful for other people who want to remove the tags as well.

              Thank you @astrosofista

                Hi @NZ-Select

                You’re welcome. Glad to be of help.

                If you want to get involved in regex —is not that hard—, let me suggest you to take a look at this page:

                Hope this helps.

                      Can you send me the url of tiny/xml plugin?
                      I searched this plugin, no result found.
