Hi. I have input like this:
<tr>
<td class="logo1" rowspan="2"><a href="index.html"><img
src="images/logo.png" /></a></td>
<td class="pad1" rowspan="2">__</td>
<td class="userBox"><img src="images/person.png"/> <a href="http://good.mybook.com/login.jsp">Sign In</a></td>
<td class="searchBox"><a href="http://good.mybook.com/searchhelp.jsp">Search mybook</a>
<input type="text" size="14" id="searchTextBox"
onkeypress="if(event.keyCode == 13) { search(); return false; }" />
<input type="button" value="Go" onclick="search();" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>�</td>
<td class="bentyLogo"><a
href="http://www.comp.benty.ac.uk/parsic"><img
src="images/benty.png" /></a></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="logoPad">__</td>
<td class="pad2">__</td>
<td class="title">
<h2>Cat-by-Cat mybook - Cook (56:47)</h2>
</td>
<td class="bentyText"><a
href="http://www.comp.benty.ac.uk/parsic">Mona Research Group</a></td>
</tr>
I would like to delete the whole thing from <tr to </tr> for the first and third "tr" tag pairs. The problem is I have the same pattern of <tr./tr> all over (not just the ones in the input sample) and I do not want to delete them all so I can not simply use sed s/<tr. \/tr>//g. So I thought maybe try sed s/<tr.*pad2.*\/tr>//g which obviously will not work. I have been searching google and trying to solve this all day but to no avail. Please help. Thanks.
How is your input file look like? Does it have only these <tr></tr> data?
If so, is this your required output?
<tr>
<td>�</td>
<td class="bentyLogo"><a href="http://www.comp.benty.ac.uk/parsic">

</td>
</tr>

Try this...
#to delete 1 and 3rd <tr>...</tr> pairs
awk '/<tr>/ {i=i+1} {if(i==1 || i==3){next} print}' file
if further if you want to delete say only the second pair, tweak the above code as
#to delete 2nd <tr>...</tr> pair
awk '/<tr>/ {i=i+1} {if(i==2){next} print}' file
