I have to get span tag from in response body where i have many html element. Below is the span element which i have to find:

 <span  title="WorldVentures Fdn" data- scribe="element:name">WorldVentures Fdn</span>      
<span  title="@WVFoundation" data-scribe="element:screen_name" >@WVFoundation</span>

I used this code:

data.body = data.body.replace(/(<span[^c]*class="TweetAuthor-name Identity-name customisable-highlight"[^>]*>)/g, '');

This code is something fine only need to put closing tag for span also so closing tag with text still remains there.

How do i remove this span from complete body?

  • If you have HTML in a string and wish to manipulate it then use the DOM manipulation features of the browser, E.g. How to parse HTML from an AJAX request? Commented Nov 4, 2016 at 11:34
  • Alex, I tried this code var getSpan = div.querySelector("span.TweetAuthor-name Identity-name customisable-highlight"); getting null in getSpan variable. Commented Nov 4, 2016 at 12:29
  • This solution is fine for me: data.body = data.body.replace(/(<span[^c]*class="TweetAuthor-name Identity-name customisable-highlight"[^>]*>)/g, ''); but the issue here is i am not closing span tag in this regex so closing span tag with value still showing there. could you make this regex correct?
