An regex using Groovy or Java to remove line-height

Question

I would like to create a regular expression to remove the line-height of a style, can be the following standards:

<p align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; line-height: 100%; text-decoration: none">

Or that:

<p align="justify" style="margin-bottom: 0cm; font-weight: normal; line-height: 100%">

the property can end with " or ; and may have any value.

Try a proper html parser because http://stackoverflow.com/a/1732454/995891 (or if you dare `htmlString.replaceAll("line-height:\\s*\\d+\\%;?", "")` — zapl, Jun 16 '16 at 06:34
I try to create something like: `line-height:[^\"]+\"|line-height:[^;]+;` Look that: [sample](http://regexr.com/3dksf) but select a text-decoration. — Romulo Fagundes, Jun 16 '16 at 06:36

const removeLineHeightTag = (text: string) => {
  const regex = /(line-height: ((\d).)*(;)*)/g;
  try {
    return `${text.replace(regex, '')}`;
  } catch (e) {
    return text;
  }
};

let yourText = '...' // change to your text
yourText = removeLineHeightTag(yourText)

Use this regex: (line-height:[\d\s]+%;?). To replace it, do the following.

yourString.replaceAll("(line-height:[\\d\\s]+%;?)", "");
