I want to replace the "<p>" tag with "<p class="myclass">" class in the following html with Search & Replace (using regular expression) function in Notepad++
<p><?php echo $element_arr["a1_discount"]; ?></p>
<p><?php echo $element_arr["b2_discount"]; ?></p>
<p><?php echo $element_arr["c5_discount"]; ?></p>
I was able to match the above with the following reg-ex:
RegEx: (<p><\?php echo \$element_arr\["[A-Za-z][1-99]_discount"\]; \?>)
I tried the following replace reg-ex but it's not working:
(<p class="myclass"><\?php echo \$element_arr\["[A-Za-z][1-99]_discount"\]; \?>)
It comes out as: <p class="cool"><?php echo $element_arr["[A-Za-z][1-99]_discount"]; ?></p>
<p class="cool"><?php echo $element_arr["[A-Za-z][1-99]_discount"]; ?></p>
Can someone help me with this. This will be a huge time-saver as I have lots of editing of such nature to do.
Thanks a lot

You don't even need a regex for this. Just search for
<p>
and replace it with <p class="myclass">
In case you do have other p
tags with various attributes, you can use the following approach:
(<p[^<>]*\\bclass=")[^"]*("[^<>]*>)
regex replacing with $1myclass$2
(the Regular Expression
option ON). This is working for strings like
<p class="someclass">text</p>
<p id="new" class="someclass">text</p>
<p id="new" class="someclass" end="true">text</p></code>
<p\\b(?![^<>]*\\bclass=)([^<>]*)>
replacing with <p$1 class="myclass">
for paragraph tags without attributes or without class
attribute. This is fine for strings like
<p>text</p>
<p id="new">text</p>
This complexity can be easily removed if you decided to use any HTML parser with a regular programming language.
How about:
Find what: <p>(?=<\\?php echo \\$element_arr\\["[A-Za-z][1-9][0-9]*_discount"\\]; \\?>)
Replace with: <p class="myclass">
Where (?=...)
is a positive lookahead that makes sure you have <?php echo ...
after the tag <p>
