John, is the last regexp this:
/(<.*?)\\son[a-zA-Z]+([^>]+>)/
because that's what's in there.
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

/(<.*?)\\son[a-zA-Z]+([^>]+>)/
I think we need to change that to:
/(<[^>]+?)\\son[a-zA-Z]+([^>]+>)/
that should do it.
(anyone paying attention who realises that completely contracticts my verbal solution above, please just keep it to yourself.)
Edited for the slash before the s.

You're very kind, but it's the classic beginner's mistake with regexes. "Dot-star is almost never what you want" -- Jeffrey E Friedel, Mastering Regular Expressions, O'Reilly & Associates, 1997.

Well, some of us beginners never got that far.

Yes -- it's for table width. It used to be a sentence. Spaces wouldn't have the same effect.
Is anyone else desperately curious about what that sentence was?

I'd love to the How-To or HTML bits cover how to turn a long, obnoxious link to one of those tidy, one-word hyperlinks.
Other than that, I am loving this board!
