How to Ignore(hide) contents between in Trados 2014

Topic: How to Ignore(hide) contents between <> in Trados 2014
Poster: Refoxo

Hi, all. I recently got a excel file which contains a lot of HTML script i.e.

[img] [url removed] [/img]

The part i need to translate is only the "Auto-Pause", so i wonder if there is any way to make Trados 2014 ignore anything between and also keep the segmentation exactly same as the excel file.

I already tried to copy all lines in the excel file and paste them into a TXT file , and then rename the TXT file in to a HTML file. well, it worked, partially. the and the contents in it are gone. but the segmentation is totally different. Here is the example.

this is what the excel file looks like [img] [url removed] [/img]

and here is what the HTML files looks like
[img] [url removed] [/img]

The HTML file ignored some of the soft returns, and the segmentation changed, which means i must find a new way.

I remember one of my former colleagues told me to use regex to fix that problem and it worked. but that was two years ago, and unfortunately, I forgot how to write the regex sentence.

Could any one help me with this problem? any method is ok, as long as it can fix the two problems at once.
