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.
man awk
man 7 regex
