I have an html file.The entire script is in one line only. The
following is the script.

tbody>

Chapter
1: .................................................

In the above script I want to delete the text

tbody>

Chapter
1: .................................................

where ........ represents variable content.

I have 100 files with names 1.htm to 100.htm

How can i do this using unix commands rather than selecting the text
and deleting.

Thanks
Santhosh
