| Description |
A regex that filters the text property attributes or CSS in a span or font tag, i.e. only the color and font-size style properties and the color and size attributes.
But there are two things I want to improve :
- First I need the regex to match, even when only one of the two style sheet properties is available (only font-size or only color)
- And second, it would be nice if a heading space is captured with the style sheets properties to. I have tried this already but didn't succed. with the tag attributes it does work. |
