If you want to leave only the <font> tag, then you could use a regular expression to replace the whole <font...> tag, as in...

    var regexp:RegExp = /<font.*?>/;

    myString = myString.replace(regexp, "<font>");

But if you want to specifically remove only the face portion of it, then you could use...

    var regexp:RegExp = / face.*'/;

    myString = myString.replace(regexp, "");

I was going to add that have a <font> tag that specifies nothing is about as good as not having one at all.
