The problem is, the matching HTML actually appears _before_ the result that I want. So I need to skip past the first instance of it. And I don’t see a way to choose a different string, because the server produces some dynamically generated content that I can’t match against.
So my next thought was to use `StripTags` to strip out the content that I don’t want. It’s in a simple side bar that is like `
... all the content ...
` and so I tried:
```
"StripTags" : [
"
", "
"
]
```
Unfortunately, DevonAgent crashes when trying to process the results. I don’t know if I’m using `StripTags` correctly or not – the help says “[array] Array of strings marking HTML tags defining blocks to strip.” but doesn’t provide any examples.
How can I exclude a part of the web page, and match against the second instance of my `TextStart`?

In DEVONagent, hold the **Option key** and select **Help \> Report Bug** to report the crash. Thanks!

I can do that.
Is there any information on how to use `StripTags` ? I don’t see any examples documented. Or how to get the second `TextStart` / `TextEnd` result?
I’m here to ask for help on how to accomplish a result with DevonAgent. The crash is incidental.

@cgrunenberg would have to comment as I have no examples on it.

A crash isn’t incidental to us, especially if it’s cause by the parameters you mentioned.

The BBC News, Google News, World News Network and JSTOR plugins use this.

Oh, cool! I just saw that I could not edit the plugins, so I figured they were compiled in somehow. I never noticed that “show in finder” was available until now. Still learning things after using it for years 🙂 Thanks

Many you can duplicate and edit.
