Ok so I want to search through my document for all instances of

<input [whatever]>

with

<input [whatever]/>

I'm trying to use the regular expressions feature of Find -> Replace, 
but I can't find any documentation on how this feature should best be 
used. What I really need to be able to do is to get it to match the 
whole pattern but store the [whatever] to be used in the replace text. 
It would appear that using "Placeholders" in the replace pattern would 
have something to do with it, but I'm kinda lost here. I've written a 
lot of regular expressions but I'm not sure what Quanta is actually 
expecting and/or is capable of here.

Thanks,

-Brian
