Question

I have a bunch of footnotes that appear in the the text and source code as and [iv] and [xxiii], etc. I don't need them to link anywhere.

But I do want to superscript them.

So I need a way to search the source code for [anything] and replace it with <sup>[anything]</sup>.

So any time my code contains left-bracket, any character(s), right bracket...that code stays the same except for <sup> before it and </sup> after it.

I am getting confusing with my syntax involving the brackets. thanks !

Wow, thanks so much. That was close, but it's putting the sup tags around the whole P tags, but I only need it around the bracketed info.So my code is like this:

This is a sentence[vii]

What I want is:

This is a sentence^[vii]

And yours did this:^{This is a sentence[vii]
^{Ah, I did misunderstand your request.In FIND: (<\s*p[^>]*>[^<]*)($$\w+$$\s*)(<\s*/\s*p\s*>)In REPLACE: $1^$2$3HTH,^ _ ^}}
