Removing Multiple lines below a keyword using SED?
I have 9,000 + html files.

I am using the following to remove the content from a certain line up

Code:
for i in `ls`
do
sed '1,569d' $i > $i.bak
done

This will remove the unwanted formatting keeping the content I need which changes in each HTML file.

the problem I have now is that the lines below are not the same as what I used above.

the only common marker I can find in the HTML files is the following

Code:
<h4 class="docheading Keywords">Keywords</h4>

This is where I would like to start removing everything from this point until the end of the HTML file.

I am not sure how to do this and any help would be greatly appreciated

test::html::lint

Test::HTML::Lint(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     Test::HTML::Lint(3pm)

NAME

       Test::HTML::Lint - Test::More-style wrapper around HTML::Lint

VERSION

       Version 2.20

SYNOPSIS

	   use Test::HTML::Lint tests => 4;

	   my $table = build_display_table();
	   html_ok( $table, 'Built display table properly' );

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a few convenience methods for testing exception based code. It is built with Test::Builder and plays happily with
       Test::More and friends.

       If you are not already familiar with Test::More now would be the time to go take a look.

EXPORT

       "html_ok"

   html_ok( [$lint, ] $html, $name )
       Checks to see that $html contains valid HTML.

       Checks to see if $html contains valid HTML.  $html being blank is OK.  $html being undef is not.

       If you pass an HTML::Lint object, "html_ok()" will use that for its settings.

	   my $lint = new HTML::Lint( only_types => STRUCTURE );
	   html_ok( $lint, $content, "Web page passes structural tests only" );

       Otherwise, it will use the default rules.

	   html_ok( $content, "Web page passes ALL tests" );

       Note that if you pass in your own HTML::Lint object, "html_ok()" will clear its errors before using it.

BUGS

       All bugs and requests are now being handled through GitHub.

	   https://github.com/petdance/html-lint/issues

       DO NOT send bug reports to http://rt.cpan.org/ or http://code.google.com/

TO DO

       There needs to be a "html_table_ok()" to check that the HTML is a self-contained, well-formed table, and then a comparable one for
       "html_page_ok()".

       If you think this module should do something that it doesn't do at the moment please let me know.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

       Thanks to chromatic and Michael G Schwern for the excellent Test::Builder, without which this module wouldn't be possible.

       Thanks to Adrian Howard for writing Test::Exception, from which most of this module is taken.
