How can I select all <div> elements by class-name "my-div", and change the elements' tag-name to span.

I am trying to copy text form many pages from a website, it is has all these div in between p elements is making hard to copy in a readable manner when pasted it was pasting in multiple lines , where ever text is bold there is a div inside a div there is a span element and in that span element there is text and div has the same class name so I am looking for a method to select all div elements of same class name and change there tag name in to span

The desired output:

Present Output:

I was Tried to select the all div elements by using jQuery $$(.className) and it gives a list of all elements after that I Manual selected and changed the div to span and then it copied, same as how it appeared

but when I was using the CSS inline it did not worked property

sample website view

      <body>
      <p >
          Lorem ipsum
          <div >
              <span >dolor</span>
          </div> 
          sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Maxime
          <div >
              <span >mollitia</span>
          </div>
          ,
      </p>

              <span >sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit.</span>
          </div>
      </p>
      
  </body>

when copied

CodePudding user response：

We can use display:inline; or display:inline-block; on any block level element to make it appear on one line.

As per your desired output: You can simply use the following CSS:

.my-div,
.my-p {
  display:inline;
}

CodePudding user response：

You can use

display: inline;

and also change your html code slightly.

.my-div {
  display: inline;
}

.my-bold {
  font-weight: 900;
}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<body>
  <div>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >First</span></div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >Second</span></div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >third</span></div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >Fourth</span></div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >Fifth</span></div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >six</span></span>
      </div> line</p>
    <p>
      <div >This is <span >seven</span></div> line</p>
  </div>
</body>

</html>

Also you can change this part of your html and css code like below, and then you don't need to use class for them except 'my-bold' :

.my-bold {
  font-weight: 900;
}

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<body>
  <div>
    <div>This is <span >First</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >Second</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >third</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >Fourth</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >Fifth</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >six</span> line</div>
    <div>This is <span >seven</span> line</div>
  </div>
</body>
