Select surrounding a tag from img with regex

Question

Take the following code as an example

<a style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/xxxxxxx.JPG"><img src="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" alt="" width="200" height="150" border="0" /></a>

How can I create a regular expression to strip out any link tag containg the domain 'blogspot.com' from the img tag?

In the end I would want this

<img src="xxxxxxxxxxxxxx" alt="" width="200" height="150" border="0" />

Thanks in advance.

I need to do this because I've imported an entire blogspot site to wordpress and the posts have image links to blogspot. Any alternative you could point? — Luis, May 21 '15 at 17:55

First of all I suggest you to read this. If you still want the regex..

You can use the following to match:

<[^>]*?href\s*=\s*"[^>]*?blogspot\.com[^>]*>(<img[^>]*?\/>)<\/[^>]*>

And replace or extract with $1

See DEMO
