sed just cant get it to copy between expressions

[susified]

Hi all i really hate to have to post a topic on this but i have been trying to get this script to work for a week now and cant seem to get it to work so i guess its time for me to ask for help

im trying to get sed to read through a txt document that contains html and cant get it to copy over my code looks like

sed -n '/[width=468 height=60 border=0 /></a></center><hr>]/,/[<br clear=left><hr>]/p' 1.txt > 2.txt

This is the code that seemed to have the best chance of working but still all it does is copy the whole txt document over instead of between these 2 expressions

any help would be greatly appreciated

bump well i tried to change it around as much as i can but i can only either get it to ouput no information(blank 2.txt) or all the information. Still quite stumped on this and now seeing if i can have any luck in gawk

probably you are having difficulty because of all the / inside of your sed statement, you should use something different to separate the parts, like |

it is difficult to see what you are trying to do
