here is my problem

 

This is my original Code:

<p class="x3-subheading-1">DEGREE: Bachelor of Accountancy<br />MAJOR: Accounting</p>

 

I want to find and replace all instances of this subheading class with this:

<h3>******************</h3>

 

 

This is what has worked for me for ones without <br />:

Find:           <p class="x3-subheading-1">([^<]*)</p>

 

Replace:      <h3>$1</h3>

    Managed to figure out this as a work arround.

     

    Find:          <p class="x3-subheading-1">([^<]*)<br />([^<]*)</p>

     

    Replace:     <h3>$1<br />$2</h3>

     

     

    Depending on the number of <br /> you can just add more

     

    Find:          <p class="x3-subheading-1">([^<]*)<br />([^<]*)<br />([^<]*)</p>

     

    Replace:     <h3>$1<br />$2<br />$3</h3>
