Hahahaha,
I see that you posted this in quite a few places. Let me repeat it here then. BTW, do a bit of homework if you do need fine tuning before posting back on this list.
awk 'BEGIN {sawpattern=0} "^[[:alpha:]], ^[[:alpha:]]" {if (($0 ~/<br><font size=3>[[:alpha:]]/ )&& (sawpattern == 0)) {sawpattern=1} else {sawpattern=0;print $0}}' testfile.txt
I don't know how your files are exactly formatted. Please look up the documentation if you need to further finetune.

thank you, and sorry, if i had formulated wrong, but the "SOMETEXT#X" is a random STRING, like:

hyphen's [ - ] are just for marking the start/end of a pattern, but there are _not in_ the pattern! "OUTPUT" is what i want after "seding" the PATTERN#X's
so i for e.g.: need the first, and second "magic" sed "FIRSTMAGIC" PATTERN#1 sed "SECONDMAGIC" PATTERN#2
PATTERN#1:
SOMETEXT#1 <br><font size=3>SOMETEXT#2</font><br> <br><font size=3>SOMETEXT#3</font><br> SOMETEXT#4
"exact pattern", what is unique from the pattern:
</font><br>\n<br><font size=3>
OUTPUT:
SOMETEXT#1 <br><font size=3>SOMETEXT#3</font><br> SOMETEXT#4

i just can't figure it out, how to "sed" when having several lines [nor in awk, perl..]
could anyone post a link, or some guide, how to write these two lines of "sed"?
Thank You! :\
