JavaScript: Regex to remove string from one tag to another

Question

I have a string

<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale=1">
<style>body p{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} div{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}span{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} h1{max-width:100% !important; height: auto!important;}h2{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h3{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h4{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h5{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} img{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}iframe{max-width:100% !important;height: auto!important;}
</style><span style="background-color: rgb(68, 68, 255);">#followforfollow #likeforlike yo!</span>
<h2></h2>
<h3></h3>
<h2></h2>
<h1></h1><u></u> 

in this I want to remove everything inside the style tags. Can anyone please tell me the optimal solution.The expected output is:

<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale=1">
<span style="background-color: rgb(68, 68, 255);">#followforfollow #likeforlike yo!</span>
<h2></h2>
<h3></h3>
<h2></h2>
<h1></h1><u></u>

Answer 1

There is no need for regex since there are DOM methods available to deal with it.

Create a dummy div element and use querySelector to remove the child style element.

var div = document.createElement( "div" );
div.innerHTML = str; //your input string
div.removeChild( div.querySelector( "style" ) );
console.log( div.innerHTML );

Demo

var str = `<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, minimum-scale=1">
<style>body p{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} div{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}span{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} h1{max-width:100% !important; height: auto!important;}h2{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h3{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h4{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}h5{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;} img{max-width: 100% !important;height: auto!important;}iframe{max-width:100% !important;height: auto!important;}
</style><span style="background-color: rgb(68, 68, 255);">#followforfollow #likeforlike yo!</span>
<h2></h2>
<h3></h3>
<h2></h2>
<h1></h1><u></u>`;

var div = document.createElement( "div" );
div.innerHTML = str;
div.removeChild( div.querySelector( "style" ) );
console.log( div.innerHTML );
