tagdeletion
Brackets extension for removing the outermost pair of html tags in a selection.
Designed to remove the first opening tag and last closing tag in each selection of text. Tags don't need to match to be removed. Self-closed tags (like <br/>
) are ignored. Comments are also ignored.
Changelog:
1.2.0: Selections stay selected after each operation.
1.1.0: One call removes a pair of tags from each selection where applicable (in other words, now works with multiple cursors/selections)
How to Use:
Select text so the opening and closing tag you want to remove are surrounded.
Either:
a) From the top menu, Edit->Strip Outermost Tags From Selection
b) Right-click, select Strip Outermost Tags From Selection from dropdown
c) Use keyboard shortcut Ctrl+` (That's the "back quote" or "grave accent")
Mac users: Use command+` instead.
Known Bugs:
Behaves erratically when selecting multiple lines of text (Most recent version should have fixed this once and for all, please let me know if something weird still happens)
Selections remain after operation but sometimes end up selecting more than they should (should be fixed already, but may be subject to user's preference).
