sed delete range

Hi

I would like to delete ranges of text from an html file;
In the sentence; aqua>Stroomprobleem in Hengelo verholpen <a href="107-01.html"><font color=yellow>107</a>

With several sentences like this in that file, where the text between <a href a> varies, so it needs to be deleted in the range from <a till a>.

I tried;
Code:
sed -n '\<a\,\a>\s \#.*\ \g' [file-name].html

replacing it with nothing but this doesn't do anything, what am I doing wrong?
(bit of a noob here, so probably something stupid Smilie
