You can't do such job with regex. Use a parser with your favorite scripting anguage. [You can't parse xml with regex](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1732348/regex-match-open-tags-except-xhtml-self-contained-tags/1732454#1732454) — Toto, Mar 19 '23 at 16:36

A very basic solution would be /(<span[^>]*>)(.*?)(<\/span>)/

I don't know what regex flavor notepad++ uses, so I can't say that the replace code would be the same, but I'm sure you'll be able to work with this

z It must work with specific class says katex, there are more middle span tags for which it should not be replaced. (Only entry level span tag with specific class) note pad++ with HTML – SEKHAR NAIDU Bathini Mar 19 '23 at 14:11
Update your question to include all this information, I answered based on the currently available information in the question. I still don't know how to read minds – Buttered_Toast Mar 19 '23 at 15:31
